Requests:  0 Summary:  "In Declassified, Warsaw-Fan Rauch blows through the cobwebs of elitism and exclusion and invites everyone to love and hate this music as much as she does. She offers a backstage tour of the industry and equips you for every listening scenario, covering: the 7 main compositional periods (even the soul-crushingly depressing Medieval period), a breakdown of the instruments and their associated personality types (apologies to violists and conductors), what it's like to be a musician at the highest level (it's hard), how to steal a Stradivarius (and make no money in the process), and when to clap during a live performance (also: when not to). Declassified cheekily demystifies the world of High Art while making the case that classical music matters, perhaps now more than ever"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 781.17 Wa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 781.17 Wa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
