Seller's Description
Jacques Barzun recounts the events and extraordinary achievements of the great composer's life against the background of the romantic era. As the author eloquently demonstrates, Berloiz was an archetype whose destiny was the story of an age, the incarnation of an artistic style and a historical spirit. "In order to understand the nineteenth century, it is essential to understand Berlioz," notes W. H. Auden, "and in order to understand Berlioz, it is essential to read Professor Barzun."
"Jacques Barzun's Berlioz . . . is unique in that it reviews the facts in a wide historical, social and aesthetic perspective, and is therefore able to interpret them." Wilfrid Mellers
