Book Synopsis

A radical new book by journalist, critic and BBC Radio 3 broadcaster Kate Molleson, which fundamentally changes the way we think about classical music and the musicians who made it on a global scale.

''Wonderful . . . This is a book of discovery that speaks of music as a life force, that urges us to live our lives through music. ''
COSEY FANNI TUTTI

''A marvellous book that opens our ears to sonic worlds that will enrich and delight us, whoever and wherever we are.''
IAN McMILLAN

''A clear-eyed, utterly fascinating exploration of outsiders in classical music. Molleson''s excellent book challenges and enlightens.''
SINÉAD GLEESON

This is the impassioned and exhilarating story of the composers who dared to challenge the conventional world of classical music in the twentieth century.
