520 1 $a"Norman Lebrecht, one of the world's most widely read cultural commentators, gives us the full story of a major art form, analyzing the cultural revolution wrought by Schnabel, Toscanini, Callas, Rattle, the Three Tenors and Charlotte Church. The Life and Death of Classical Music is filled with memorable incidents and unforgettable personalities such as Goddard Lieberson, the legendary head of CBS Masterworks who signed his letters as God; and Georg Solti, who turned the Chicago Symphony into "the loudest symphony on earth."" "The book ends with a suitable shrine to classical recording: the author's critical selection of the 100 most important recordings - and the 20 most appalling. This is at once the story of the life and death of classical recording and art opinionated, insider's guide to appreciating the genre, now and for years to come."--BOOK JACKET.
