Synopsis
Filled with anecdote, analysis and humour, this compelling biography by the chief music critic of The Times marks the London Symphony Orchestras 100th birthday. The author traces the orchestras history and celebrates its revolutionary spirit, focusing on pivotal moments from its rebel origins in 1904, through turbulent years of risk-taking, conflict and musical genius, to 2004 and its status as the very model of the 21st-century orchestra. Slightly off-mint.
