Description

The Classical Music Encyclopedia, now fully updated, traces the development of Western music from the Middle Ages to the 21st century. Each chapter begins with an introduction to the era, followed by A to Z entries on the most important composers and musicians of the period, with an expert-recommended recording for each entry. Among them, great musicians – from Mozart to Stravinsky – have more extensive entries. The Sections Styles and Forms discuss many different musical styles, from the earliest notation to 20th-century minimalism, while the development of instruments in each era is also thoroughly examined. Written by many leading global experts in the field, this invaluable encyclopedia is comprehensive, user-friendly, and packed with information – an essential guide for readers at all levels.

“Flame Tree Publishing has been wiping the dust of everyday life for over twenty years, creating illustrated books since 1992, art calendars since 1998, and illustrated e-books since 2009. Their extensive list includes powerful and eloquent artists such as Erté and Alphonse Mucha, complemented by broad licensing agreements in their award-winning calendar line, with Tate, V&A, RSC, RA, and many others.

Thanks to a wide range of authors, editors, and writers, from Vladimir Ashkenazy, Steve Hackett, John Howe, Sir George Martin, Brian May, Paul du Noyer, Paco Peña, Stanley Sadie, the company strives to create illustrated projects that are affordable, useful, and beautiful. In addition to printed titles, their exceptional selection of practical cookbooks, music, pop culture, and lifestyle books is increasingly available in digital formats. The producer believes that well-reviewed, thoughtfully curated content should be available in many different formats to meet their readers’ needs.
