5.0 out of 5 stars Frightening intellectuality for exclusive readership, February 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Mischa Elman and the Romantic Style (Hardcover)

This book has been written by a frightening intellectual! Mr. Kozinn imbues his passion for the subject matter with rare insight, and the result is a work of such towering literary achievement that Mischa Elman's exclusive 500-plus army of fans should be left thoroughly satisfied.
