Robert Schumann's Advice to Young Musicians : Revisited by Steven Isserlis, Paperback / softback Book

Robert Schumann's Advice to Young Musicians : Revisited by Steven Isserlis Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

'No musician or music lover should be without it.' BBC Music MagazineRobert Schumann was far ahead of his time: his music anticipated a multitude of trends that would spread in the 150 years after his death, and almost every major composer who followed him acknowledged his influence.

He was also revolutionary in his attitude to young people; in 1848 he wrote his famous Advice to Young Musicians, a book that is still deeply relevant today.

In this volume, celebrated cellist Steven Isserlis has taken Schumann's words of wisdom and set them in a modern context with his own extensive commentary.

By turns practical, humorous and profound, this book is a must for aspiring musicians and music-lovers of all ages.
