Not terribly insightful, either. At least what I could glimpse from the "classical part", the only one I have some familiarity with, was disappointingly perfunctory or pedestrian - or both.<br /><br />That said, all those chapters on jazz, musical and film scores look rather interesting. I should love to hear "Othello" as musical. It might just work better than Verdi's "Otello", a music drama which - to borrow G. B. Harrison's descritpion of Shakespeare's "Macbeth" - has been "extravagantly overpraised".<br /><br />Even in the classical field Julie can be quite stimulating as a starting point. I for one had no idea that Debussy composed an incidental music to "King Lear", Dvorak an "Othello" overture and Smetana a "Richard III" one. Nor was I aware of Elgar's "Falstaff". All these are fascinating curiosities. One wonders why they are so under-performed and under-recorded.Alexanderhttp://www.librarything.com/profile/Waldsteinnoreply@blogger.com
