Stephen Fry, confirming his reputation as a one-man band, has written the history of classical music that you hold in your hands. But if you think that the famous wit gave birth to a tedious treatise listing names and dates, then most likely you are lost in the bookstore and the dry textbook should be looked for on other shelves. For everyone else, a magical journey into the world of music awaits you, and your guide will be Stephen Fry with his inimitable sense of humor. Fry talks about serious music without a hint of snobbery, ironically and naturally. Great composers are like his good friends, and Fry talks about them with sympathy and warmth. At the same time, “An Incomplete and Definitive History”; It is not at all reduced to jokes and Fry's play on words - on the contrary, it is extremely informative: historical facts, funny anecdotes, details of life and everyday life. In a word, this is a real “History” - and not only of music, but also of everything that accompanied it: wars, scientific discoveries, literary masterpieces. The Incomplete and Definitive History of Classical Music is a highly entertaining, intelligent, and funny book. A real pleasure for those who have always loved music, but for some reason were afraid to learn more about it. The book was published with the kind permission of the author and with the assistance of the literary agency ANDREW NURNBERG.
