This is a great collection of stories and touching moments out of the lives of many great composers. Every time I read the story of Pablo Casals' meeting with Gregor Piatigorsky (page 21) I cry whether I read it aloud or silently. One afternoon I read it to a man I was mentoring in a local jail, and the inmate was a concert pianist and was very familiar with Casal !!! My only request is that one day Patrick Kavanaugh fill in the rest of the days and produce a daily devotional. These great men struggled in their Christian life as each of us do. Thank you Pat for all the work you put in to produce this great book. It made me laugh and made me cry, you touched my heart. Jeff

Very attractive book about the spiritual side of composers. It is a side never looked at, but helps understand their music more.

It took a while to receive the order but the book was in great condition, just as described. The price was swell and I'll eagerly buy more books this way!
