The great instrumental works

This is a book for anyone who enjoys music and wants to find out what is really going on in the symphonies of Mozart, the string quartets of Beethoven, the orchestral works of Debussy and Ravel, or the contemporary pieces of Messiaen. With Owen Lee as your guide, the intricacies of classical forms and key relationships are rendered not only intelligible but also meaningful, the music itself becomes life-enhancing, and the great composers come vividly to life.
