Description

Still active at age 100, Nicolas Slonimsky is probably best known for his writing. Slonimsky has been admired as much for his style as for the information he has shared. A tribute to his career as a conductor, composer, teacher, and writer, this compendium celebrates Slonimsky's life and work. Featuring selections from "Baker's Biographical Dictionary of Musicians", "Music Since 1900", "Lexicon of Musical Invective". "Lectionary of Music", Slonimsky's autobiography "Perfect Pitch", and his notorious paper "Sex and the Music Librarian", Nicolas Slonimskv compiles 60 years of classic commentary.
