From the rear cover

"A remarkable collection by a remarkable author. From beginning to end, this is a collection that generously repays close study."--Stephen Hinton, Avalon Foundation Professor in the Humanities, Stanford University

"A dazzling collection of essays. This is a book that incites: to thought, to anger, to the desire to respond--in short, to participate in a discipline that Taruskin succeeds in bringing to the center stage of what the humane study of artistic activity and culture should be about."--Peter Franklin, author of Reclaiming Late-Romantic Music: Singing Devils and Distant Sounds
