Summary Fifty years after his death, ArturoToscanini (1867-1957) is still considered one of the greatest conductors in history, and probably the most influencial. His letters, expertly collected, translated, and edited here by Harvey Sachs, will give readers new insight into his life and work. As Sachs puts it, they "reveal above all else a man whose psychological perceptions in general and self-knowledge in particular were much more acute than most people have thought likely." They are sure to enthrall anyone interested in learning more about one of the great lives of the twentieth century.
