Book Reviews of The Infinite Variety of Music
Book Review: Another masterpiece by Bernstein
Summary: 5 Stars
Bernstein knew his music and his enthusiasm for its variety and richness is infectious. Everyone who has used iTunes or other online music downloads sites knows that we as humans have insatiable appetites for endless variety. This book channels that nature and passion in an uplifting manner to harness it towards refining one's appetites for more of the classical and folk styles of music and the many variety's of rich music in such genres. Bernstein opens with a dialogue about what it means to truly listen to rather than simply hear music and progresses onto an analysis of what makes music rich, concluded with in depth analysis of several music masterpieces. This book is for both the layman and connoisseur of music. For me it provided numerous references to music both familiar and new that I am excited to download in the future and add to my iTunes playlists! You can preview most of this book on google books, but it's definitely worth it to buy a hardcopy of this work for home reference.
