Book summary
This book outlines the wealth of camber music and evaluates the best recordings in a lively and readable style. This handy reference book looks at the beginnings of chamber music in the medieval troubadour forms; traces its evolution through the great composers like Bach, Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven; explores its transformation in the hands of both the Romantics and early Modernist explorers like Stravinsky and Bartok; and brings us up to the present with compositions of Stockhausen, Cage, and Carter.
