Reviews
This is a biographical dictionary of some 1500 conductors. ...Most entries are miniature essays, and some, for the major figures, are substantial--the one for Toscanini has 13 columns. These essays include a wealth of biographical and critical information plus notes on the significant recordings. Much of this information is valuable and would be hard to find in other sources. The author's style is ingratiating and fresh. . . . His coverage is superb.-Library Journal
