Anyone who is familiar with the What Makes It Great? series—which airs on NPR's Performance Today at Lincoln Center as well as at other concert halls around North America—knows about Rob Kapilow's special gift for helping listeners of all kinds deepen their understanding and appreciation of classical music.
In this book, Kapilow focuses on short masterpieces by major composers to help you understand the essence of each composer's genius and how each piece—which can be seen as well as heard on the book's companion website—transformed the musical language of its time. His down-to-earth approach makes these great pieces easy to grasp no matter what your musical background.
