## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    I like this book very much
  

*by C***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 20, 2022*

This used book arrived in better condition than described. And, more surprisingly, the international shipping arrived within one week.  It is also a great pleasure to listen to the music with Bernstein's introduction.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    I just had to replace it
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 10, 2018*

I watched the lectures when first broadcast on UK TV and bought the book and record when it was first published. I enjoyed it tremendously and it had a big impact on my musical knowledge and appreciation. His centenary reminds me that somewhere in the space of forty years and three marriages, I no longer have it. It's just arrived and opening it is like meeting an old friend after a long separation. Sadly there's no longer a record/CD.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Insightful
  

*by P***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 28, 2017*

This book is the literal transcript of the 6 Norton talks at Harvard in 1973. Brilliant and kudos to Bernstein for attempting to explicate the semantics of language vis-à-vis musical expression. Though you do feel he is at times trying to fit square pegs into round holes, you have to admire this creative insight.  It is on the whole an eye opener and his snippets of musical analysis of musical scores simply wonderful and are worth it. I read this while watching the videos (from youtube) and found it delightfully illuminating.
