About this product
Product Information
Comprehensive and meticulously researched, Great Composers is a lovingly constructed biographical history of the giants of classical music. Each self-contained chapter narrates the life and background of one or more composers. It tells the story of Bach, the respectable burgher whose vast output was composed amid petty turf rows in Lutheran Leipzig; the ugly, argumentative (and eventually deaf) Beethoven; and Mozart, whose career began as an infant prodigy and ended with an untimely death shrouded in rumour. Verdi composed his music while struggling for Italian independence; Brahms rose from the slums of Hamburg to become a hugely successful bourgeois composer; Haydn was born in a tiny cottage and became court composer to the fabulously rich Prince Esterhazy; and Berlioz whose life was transformed by the Romantic revolution of Paris in the 1830s. Far more objective, more literary (Balzac, Zola, Dostoyevsky and Proust all appear), and full of colour. Great Composers is a pleasure to read, a rich portrait of the lives of these giants of European music and the tumultuous societies in which they lived.

Hello,
I received your package today with a book I did not order. I ordered Museum marketing and you sent Python for Data Analysis. That is very dishonsest and not reliable selling practice. I want my money back in full with shipping costs, 13,19£ on my credit card I paid with. Otherwise I will file a complaint at Ebay. Obviously I am not paying for sending your book back. I you want it back, thanks for sending a prepaid label. Pictures are proof in attachment.

Ganong was a fantastic Physiology Book I used nearly 50yrs ago when a medical student. It was brilliant, clear and had an incredibly readable font. Thought I'd do a bit of quick revision. The updated 26th edition retails at about £68 and this 2010 23rd edition was just under £7. Different font - but as good as ever. Maybe slightly out of date but it'll do me nicely as a reference book. The book was an ex-library book - but was in good nick (with a plastic cover) and arrived promptly. 5 star!
