The Concertgoer's Companion - Holst to Webern - Paperback

by Antony Hopkins (Author)

Antony Hopkins was most instrumental in opening up classical music to a wider audience. To celebrate his 90th birthday in 2011 (21st March, same date as Bach but different year) we are republishing Volumes I and II of 'The Concertgoer's Companion'. Volume II covers compositions by 25 composers from both Classical and Modern periods. Composers in Volume II are Holst, Ives, Janacek, Kodaly, Liszt, Lutoslawski, Mahler, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Musorgsky-Ravel, Prokofiev, Rakhmaninov, Ravel, Schoenberg, Schubert, Schumann, Shostakovich, Sibelius, Strauss, Stravinsky, Tchaikovsky, Tchaikovsky, Tippett, Vaughan Williams, Walton and Webern. We hope the title is self explanatory.
