This volume compiles selections of Michael Steinberg's writings on music for the Boston Globe between 1964 and 1976, as a companion to the four previous collections of his program notes and essays previously published by OUP. Steinberg was known for his highly entertaining and accessible writing that made even the most complex aspects of music easy to understand. This book offers accessible musical insights, distinctive observations about the performers, composers, and programming at leading arts organizations, as well as an overview of Boston's musical life at the time.
