There are all sorts of people; events and sounds that exist in the musical world for which there are no words. We have been sadly bereft of a satisfactory way to describe the contortion of a singers mouth when reaching for the high notes; the audience member who leaves a concert halfway through the grand finale; or that person who places one finger in their ear and raises their eyes heavenwards when they sing.Tim Lihoreau neatly solves this problem in The Classic FM Musical Treasury. Having scoured the UK for place names with a musical bent; he has created a charming collection of humorously inventive; musically themed meanings. From choral singing to rock concerts; opera and orchestras; this quirky book will delight music fans everywhere.

It includes numerous old photos...many of which I have not seen before. Its an easy read and provides background on town founding. its participation in the Revolutionary and Civil wars and its era of being a major Gilded Age resort. Lenox celebrates its 250th anniversary in 2017 so this would be the perfect time to buy thus book0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Labor of love for LenoxBy SusanAmy Lafave lovingly crafts this tribute to Lenox. Black and white images are given color from her research. Reading this one feels like they are standing next to the author. pouring over old pictures. sharing an anecdotal account of a towns rich (pun intended) past.
