Berlioz: Volume One: The Making of an Artist, 1803-1832
David Cairns
No artist's achievement connects more directly with early experience than that of Berlioz. The author draws on a wealth of family papers to recreate in authentic and intimate detail the provincial milieu of Berlioz's boyhood, showing how the son of a village doctor was already transforming himself into the composer of the Fantastic Symphony.
