JOLLET Jean-Clément / CARRILLO Olivier

From the Middle Ages to the 21st century, discover centuries of history and musical developments!
Do you like Mozart's Requiem but would like to know more about the composer and his era? Do you like Carmen but would like to go deeper into the history of opera without reading an entire encyclopedia? Have you ever caught yourself wanting to buy a CD of “classical music” without daring to ask the seller for advice for fear that he would look down on you? This book is for you!

Your universe is rather that of current music and you suspect that it is improbable that the previous generations were less gifted than yours? The book is made for you.

As for you who do not understand how these "young people" can enjoy listening to such horrors on the radio, read this book to the end, you will know everything!

In this book we take our time: that of discovering, without baggage or prior knowledge, many musical treasures, from the 12th century to the present day, treasures that will vibrate your ears of pleasure when you have learned to coax them.
