Recenzje

"A collection of fourteen very fine essays...Loosley grouped into four sections..., the general sense is...of increasing richness...Regarding Fauré is an indispensable addition to any scholarly collection and a welcome contribution, not only to Fauré scholarship, but to the study of the cultural life of fin de siéle Paris." -- Notes
