(Applause Books). This volume contains the best of Shaws musical writing; including sections on Gluck; Handel; Mozart; Beethoven; Rossini; Verdi; Berlioz; pieces on opera; musical analysis; oratorios; Gilbert and Sullivan; plus a long autobiographical preface; one of Shaws most self-revealing works. The result is a book of unparalleled brilliance and grace by a writer who; according to W.H. Auden; "was probably the greatest music critic who ever lived." "For all music collections."
