This deeply imaginative and entertaining poetry collection details the pleasures of the orchestra, from strong-willedAto satisfiedZ.
Two widely acclaimed poetsone a composer and classical pianist as wellhave come together to create this extraordinary portrait of the orchestra in all of its richness and fascination, using the structure of the alphabet in a way thats entirely new and delightful. A is for the first note you hear as you take your seat in the concert hall, played by the headstrong oboe. B is for the bassoon, the orchestras jester, complaining impatiently through his nose. And C is for the conductor, like the captain on the bridge of a great ship, navigating the composers musical charts.
Onward the text goes, soaring in reverie and making thought-provoking observations while not taking itself too seriouslyilluminating all the various details that flow together to create the nourishing experience of playing or listening to music.
