A THING OR TWO ABOUT MUSIC

A charivari of musicology which collects paragraphs of odd information in the history of music from 1784 to ""re-bop"". It makes a pleasant jumble of biographical , anecdotal apocrypha, personalities, limericks, boners, criticism, compositions, advertising, radio commercials, instruments, inventions, censorship, song, animals, opera, concert, etc. Bound to amuse and sometimes edify musicians of all kinds.
