| By Gerald Abraham. London,England: Duckworth, 1974. Hard Cover. Good Condition/Jacket Good. Fourth Edition. Ex-Library. ISBN:0 7156 0703 0. Pages 333. Quoted from book: 'The only book I know which deals with the whole period from 1830 till today, both impartially and sympathetically. He can write with equal knowledge and enthusiasm on composers as different in style as Berlioz, Brahms, Wagner and Mussorgsky, and his final estimates seem to me remarkably sound and unbiased.' Constant Lambert, reviewing the first edition. |
