Add to basketNEW BOOK. Hardback. (23.4 x 15.6 cm) ; 232pp. black and white illustrations; publisher's black cloth, dust-jacket. 'A captivating and heartfelt memoir from at true music afficionado.' This is not a 'conventional' diplomatic memoir about political 'revelations', but a passionate account of the extraordinary life of a young professional violinist in Switzerland, a senior British diplomat around the world, a nuclear environmental expert in post-Soviet Russia, and pro bono work with arts charities around Europe. Hearing Yehudi Menuhin play solo Bach and Bartà k in Oxford's Sheldonian Theatre in 1959 would prove an epiphany for the seventeen-year-old Desmond Cecil. Already an advanced oboe student of Joy Boughton, he decided there and then, against all the odds, to become a violinist. This autobiography tells the remarkable journey its author took in his quest to follow his passion to perform music â" eventually with his own Stradivari violin.
