Days with the Great Composers
May Gillington Byron
Read by David Wales
An imagined day in the life of each composer gives the anonymous author scope to describe each one's work and life, sketchily, of course, but interestingly. (Summary by David Wales)
Note: This is a compilation of three books, each describing three composers. The second book - middle three chapters - has no online version as of yet. (7 hr 33 min)

A remarkable work. It brings to life the great composers. I am so eager now to sample their works and watch their operas. I have never been an opera fan, but now... Beautifully read.
