Virgil makes me tear my hair out,
By A Customer
This review is from: Music with Words: A Composer`s View (Hardcover)
I remember listening to a performace of The Soldier's Tale in which the three most prominent living American composer's; Copland, Sessions and Thomson read the roles. No one who has read him will doubt who Virgil Thomson was, the devil. There has probably never been a composer/critic who could be so wonderfully generous, unbiased and insightful or more small minded and wicked. This book has a lot in it to reccommmend but you'd be crazy to take it as gospel. Even while shaking my head with doubt, I can't ignore what he says.
