Summary
Darren Henley and Sam Jackson have set out to make the world of classical music accessible to all. Three sections steer you through the terminology and etiquette of classical music, open the fascinating history of the genre and its key figures over the last 1,000 years, and provide a detailed reference guide.

Henley offers insights into the composition of an orchestra, the workings of its instruments, and the lives of its composers....
