The Attentive Listener - Three Centuries of Music Criticism

Rating:
Summary: Serious, Intelligent, Difficult but Worth It!
Review: The Attentive Listener by Harry Haskell isn't for the faint-hearted, nor is it for them looking for an easy read. It is a complicated, highly evolved kind of a book, the sort that could only have been written by someone with an incredible depth to his understanding of music. Not for everyone by any means, but Haskell's book is a must for any music critic or anyone heavily interested in the history of music. I recommend it!
