Discord: Conflict And The Making Of Music.

Universe Books, New York: 1983. Hardcover with dustjacket. Very good condition. Few feuds can rival a musical row, and here is a magnificent collection representing the whole gamut. Many of these disharmonies are wonderfully laughable. Many are devastatingly harmful. But all of them go to the heart of the musical temperament, sharing its extremes, of pomposity and small-midedness but also of integrity and courage.
