Negative Positive
Title: Encore
Review: This book is a brilliant piece of memoirs. From the early days in Paris to the achievements witht the NYP, the CSO and the solidification of contemporary music in Europe. Nothing is left out, encounters with Bartok and Stravinski abound, and Debussy smiles from the back seat. I would love to learn more about the relationship with Alma Mahler who supposedly punctured tonality in one of her digressive moments. As the master said: Colourless green ideas sleep furiously.
