Opis

"A composer of delicate and 'otherworldly' music, Catalani demands the re-evaluation that David Chandler herewith provides in a fascinating book which gathers together the earliest biographical writings on Catalani, the composer's earliest surviving letters, and some account of his cultural afterlife in the first age of recorded music. For anyone wanting to know more about Catalani, and the issues surrounding his career, this will be essential reading." -Konrad Dryden Dr. Dryden is Professor of Music at the University of Maryland University College Europe and author of 'Ruggiero Leoncavallo: Life and Works', 'Franco Alfano: Transcending Turandot' and 'Riccardo Zandonai: A Biography.'
