FOLLOWING ON THE INTERNATIONAL SUCCESS OF BACH, BEETHOVEN AND THE BOYS - NOW IN IT'S 35TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY EDITIONDavid Barber directs his attention to the youngest of classical music lovers with BACH, BEETHOVEN FOR KIDS.This new book especially tailored to young readers is filled with useful information, interesting facts and fun trivia. This hilarious and informative history covers music from Gregorian chant to the mess we're in now. From Bach's laundry lists to Beethoven's quirky coffee order, from Clara Schumann's tenacity to John Cage's mushroom expertise, Barber brings these and other composers to life. As always, Dave Donald has provided witty and clever cartoon illustrations to accompany the text.David W. Barber has delighted readers all around the world with Accidentals on Purpose, Getting a Handel on Messiah and other internationally bestselling books of musical humor. His bestselling Bach, Beethoven and the Boys chronicles the lives of the great (and not-so-great) composers as you've never read them before - exploring their lives, exposing their foibles and expanding on our understanding of these all-too-human creatures. Bach, Beethoven and the Grrrls similarly shines much-needed light on the lives of women composers too long neglected. Now Barber brings these two resources together in Bach, Beethoven for Kids. Here's what some notable people have said about David W. Barber's books:"My heartiest commendation for an admirable work of scholarship. ... I will not say again that it is funny, since this will compel you to set your jaw and dare Barber to make you laugh."- Anthony Burgesson Bach, Beethoven and the Boys"I must say I still adore opera. I know it is just as silly as Mr. Barber says it is, but I love it."- Anna Russellon When the Fat Lady Sings"This amusing and witty ... delightful book."- Yehudi Menuhinon Accidentals on Purpose "Those who have laughed their way through David Barber's earlier books will see that there are a lot of facts lurking behind his irreverent humor." - Trevor Pinnockon Getting a Handel on Messiah
