About this title

Synopsis

For ten years, Leon Cole hosted RSVP, one of Canada's most popular classical music programs. Listeners wrote or called to ask for their favorite music. They had stories to go with the requests: stories of triumph and disaster on stage; unlikely insights into great performers and composers; letters linking music to majestic landscapes and exotic locales as well as the devastation of war; commentaries on the role of music in making us human - and humane.

You'll find many of these letters and conversations in this book, along with quizzes, gossip, 'top ten' lists, candid photos and more. It's for fans of the show and anyone who's learning to love classical music.
