Prodigiously gifted, he became best known in America as a conductor (where he was considered as a successor to Toscanini in New York) and in Europe as one of the greatest violinists of the century. But he was first and foremost a composer; and, tragically, his mature works - works of extraordinary emotional depth and intricate beauty - remain almost unknown outside Romania. This, the first full-length study of Enescu and his music to be written in the West, tells the story of his life and development as a composer. All of Enescu's published compositions, and many unpublished works, are discussed, and there is a detailed list of Enescu's compositions and a list of all his known recordings as conductor, violinist and pianist. The book is intended for the non-specialist reader as well as the musicologist. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e NOEL MALCOLM, the historian, philosopher and journalist, is the leading authority on Enescu.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Toccata Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50492233548050,"sku":"9780907689331","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_1b331812-2021-471d-800b-218648aa704f.jpg?v=1730578490","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/george-enescu-his-life-and-music-9780907689331","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
