Just back from the Barbican library. I managed to get "Lives of the Great Composers" and the Mahler 3 recording mentioned above, but not the Mahler book, unfortunately. I hope I'll get round to reading LOTGCs, but it is a huge hardback and I don't know if I'll be bothered to carry it on the train with me!

Thanks you two!


Dip into it. The chapters are (largely) stand alone so it will not spoil the narrative. The fore mentioned chapter on Wagner and the chapter covering Bruckner, Mahler and Reger are recommended. I guarantee that Bruckner will become your new hero.



Cheers, will do. I'll leave it here at work for a spot of lunchtime dippage!
