More about the book

"Music is the medicine of the soul, says Robin Ray. Yet music cannot exist by itself, it must have people, not only to write but to perform it and to listen to it, as this enthralling collection demonstrates over and over again. From letters, record sleeves, diaries, biographies, newspapers and magazines, and countless anecdotes, you will find here pieces about operas and symphonies, jazz and film music, composers, conductors, performers and critics; stories of love, of poverty and destitution, arrogance and despair, success and failure..."--Book jacket.
