Description
This authoritative, beautifully written guide presents 231 of the most frequently performed pieces of chamber music by 55 composers. For each, the author gives a brief biography, followed by discussions of the individual compositions---both their historical and musical contexts and their salient features, including formal organization, content, and any extramusical associations. "No lover of chamber music should be without this Guide."---John Barkham Reviews. Preface. Glossary. [5 3/8 x 8 1/2, 480 pp.]
