Tosh: Interesting book that gives another perspective to the composers. Such as what was going on in history during their time, not only world history but music history and how that influenced their style.

Kent Byron: I've been in music all my life. This is a great book filled with enlightening eye-candy images as well as a great history of western music over a long period of time. But then again, DK books never seem to be bad, not any of them. A great book.

SB: Muito resumido e, às vezes, divergente com as novas descobertas da musicologia contemporânea. Não é indicado para iniciantes.

ladysupermarket: This is an excellent compendium of facts, chronologically -edited and explanations of the evolution and history of music with incredible illustrations and biographical notes from the composers. It gets a little bit technical at times but if you are interested in learning, I found it was best accompanied by hearing the example that was being explained while reading. I have learned so much from this and has made me a lot more interested in classical music. It also made me really curious to explore the rest of the books in this series as a way to expand my knowledge in other interesting topics to me, as the layoff of the book is so digestible if you are patient
