About this copy

Part of Dent's celebrated Master Musicians series, Eric Blom's biography of Mozart remains a warm, readable and deeply informed portrait of the composer's life and music. Blom, a respected critic and writer on music, brings Mozart's world vividly to life, from the prodigy touring the courts of Europe to the mature genius of the operas and concertos. Every music lover will find something to treasure here.

This copy is the 1937 reprint (with corrections) in the original cloth hardback, with a frontispiece portrait of Mozart and musical examples in the text. It carries a period ownership inscription dated 1939 on the front endpaper.

Condition

Book
Good. The binding is firm and the boards sound. The cloth is faded and soiled with scattered marks, with some rubbing to the spine ends. The text is clean, with some foxing and spotting to the preliminaries. A previous owner's name and date appear on the front endpaper.

A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
