A guidebook that explores the diversity of London's musical heritage. Arranged as a series of walks around places of classical music interest in the capital, the book offers a wide range of practical information (such as opening times, box office details), as well as a series of anecdotes relating to London's musical life, past and present. For those intrigued to know why Mendelssohn was forced to write out from memory the whole of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" before its British Premiere, or which German musician living in London persuaded Haydn to visit, this is an appropriate companion.
