Kate Molleson: Rewriting the Musical Canon
BBC Radio 3 listeners know Kate Molleson as one of Britain’s best-respected voices on contemporary classical music. Her new book demonstrates that she is equally at ease with the written word. Sound Within Sound is a brave, brilliant and rollicking reappraisal of classical music, focusing on ten musicians who altered the course of musical history, only to be sidelined by an era that favoured established musical approaches. Join Molleson for an enlightening journey through music.
