VERDI - A Biography - By Robert Wechsberg - Hardback Book | |

| The popular image of Verdi as a benign white-haired old gentleman, smiling out at the wold from his seclusion at Sant'Agata, is only true of the later years of this colourful and enigmatic composer. Attractive, ambitious, hard-headed and unforgiving, Verdi was often tyrannical to his household and astonishingly cruel to his friends. Evenso, this circle adored him and his second wife, Guiseppina Strepponi, devoted her life to smoothing his path to success. This book contains 16 colour plates and a further 120 illustrations in black and white.
