17 weeks - 17 books 📚
I love to read. All kinds of books. Fiction and non-fiction, historical novels, biographies, music books. My reading list is long and getting longer every day. 📝
Until the end of the year I want to suggest one book on music per week. It's not supposed to be a complete list or even a value judgement, it's just a selection of my book shelf and what I've found interesting.
Also, some of the books might only be available in German.
I'm happy if you can broaden my list with your favorite books on music in the commentaries. #17booksonmusic
Book#1:
Arthur Rubinstein: "My young years" and "My many years"
Rubinstein's memoirs in two parts are so much more than just a pianist's autobiography. His journey from the bon vivant to the pianist with triumphal success all over the world is a fascinating piece of contemporary history, especially in the context of the political troubled and dramatic time of the early 1900s. The anecdotes of the many, sometimes hilarious love affairs and the encounters with members of politics and aristocracy and with the artists of his time make it an amusing and exhilarating read.
