Summary
The feel-good place to buy books
Maestros, Masterpieces and Madness by Norman Lebrecht
Presents an account of how a random alliance of engineers, entrepreneurs, conductors and fixers invented a new medium containing the entire back catalogue of Western civilization. This work demonstrates that classical recording has reached its end point, but this is not just an expose of decline and fall.
Norman Lebrecht won the Whitbread First Novel Award for 2003 with The Song of Names. The judges described it as 'not just a brilliant first novel but a brilliant novel - thought-provoking, lyrical and profound'. Born in London, Norman Lebrecht is Assistant Editor of the Evening Standard and presenter of lebrecht.live on BBC Radio 3.
