Book SynopsisRecord producer Peter Andry recounts his experiences over 50 years in the classical music industry in Inside the Recording Studio, offering portraits of great singers, instrumentalists, and conductors such as Maria Callas, Yehudi Menuhin, and Herbert von Karajan against a background of the dramatic changes in the recording industry.
Trade ReviewA volume in the line from the late John Culshaw's legendary Decca-related memoirs, this is an engaging stringing-together of tales from Peter Andry's distinguished decades as a producer....No one can fail to enjoy this. * Classical Music, October 2008 *
There are wonderful stories, and you will get to know what went on behind the scenes when great recordings were being made. * American Record Guide, May/June 2009 *
Inside the recording studio is remarkably honest.... Highly recommend this title for any library which has a large collection of recordings. -- Richard LeSueur * Notes: Quarterly Journal of the Music Library Association, March 2009 *
Engaging style... * BBC Music Magazine, August 2008 *
