Industry Reviews

"Packed with memorable art and lots of great trivia about fascinating artists...Iconic Composers is a beautiful book about musical geniuses throughout the centuries." -- Foreword Reviews
"Of course, a compendium of iconic composers must include Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart, but this book goes beyond the overrepresented in its 50 profiles to fill in gaps with previously marginalized but equally significant composers...[a] concise, insightful collection." -- Booklist
