It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: Berlioz Memoirs

I think I have the "older" Barzun translation. But I doubt that really matters since Berlioz wrote directly from his heart -- he is hard to misunderstand. Along with the memoires, you may wish to look at "Evenings at the Orchestra" for concert criticism at its best.

Berlioz was, to me, a truly great composer, a fine writer, the apotheosis of romanticism, and perhaps the most significant expander of orchestral-colour possibilities ever.


So there.
