Story-Lives of Great Musicians

Francis Jameson Rowbotham

Read by LibriVox Volunteers

Following the plan of his previous volume of Great Authors, the writer has here endeavoured to weave into more or less story form a few of the facts and incidents in the lives of some great musicians. It is hoped that young readers — and especially those to whom music is a subject of study — will take a greater interest in some of the masterpieces of composition when they have learnt something about the composers themselves, and the circumstances under which they wrote. - Summary from the Preface (11 hr 2 min)
