Why Handel Waggled His Wig by Steven Isserlis Cbe
What did Haydn's wife use for curling-paper for her hair? What did Schubert do with his old spectacles case? Why was Dvorak given a butcher's apron when he was a little boy? Why did Tchaikovsky spit on a map of Europe? Addressing these questions, this work contains facts, dates and anecdotes, interspersed with black-and-white line illustrations.
