What is The Encyclopedia of Classical Music about?

The sound world of classical music is among the most rewarding and enjoyable in our culture, and yet all too rarely is its magic captured in book form. This encyclopedia has been conceived to be the exception that proves this golden rule: an enjoyable and authoritative guide to Western civilization’s greatest music from the plainchant of Hildegard of Bingen to the minimalist masterpieces of our own time. How the musical landscape between these poles was shaped and by whom is revealed in stimulating and lively fashion. All the major musical elements are covered – from the concerto and symphony, through choral works and art-songs to the most dramatic and spectacular of al musical forms, opera.The Encyclopedia of Classical Music is intended for anyone who loves good tunes and is curious to find out more about how they came into being, their place in our culture and the uniquely gifted people who created them.
