Reviews

'Excellent, conversational, full of vivid colour and dry wit.' (The Scotsman) 'A fluent and lucid introduction. His text is expertly paced.' (Classical Music) 'Full of insights and contriving to tell us much about the music.' (Sunday Telegraph)

'As a series, Phaidon's 20th Century Composers has brought remarkable variety and a welter of information, both necessary and delightfully trivial. Intended both for the general reader and for the more enthusiatically musical...' (The Scotsman)
