Opis

This study analyzes chamber music from Mozart's time within its highly social salon-performance context.

Recenzje

'The sociability of music-making is one of its most highly desirable (and oft-forgotten) attributes, one that musicology has steadily begun to address (and long may that continue). Klorman's Mozart's Music of Friends is a prominent and very welcome landmark in this progress.' John Irving, Journal of the Royal Musical Association
