Editorial Reviews
German Book Trade Gazette, Frankfurt
"The narrow divide between genius and madness has always exercised a special fascination. The extraordinary casts a spell of its own and the particular attraction of this book is that the author is not only looking over the shoulders of the composers but also peering into their minds and bodies."

Amy Knutson-Stack, Instrumentalist
"The author cleverly reconstructs each composer's life;intertwining how health and psychological states affected, and even inspired, compositions and performances.While the book clearly targets a medical community interested in music, it is equally intriguing for musicians"
