A Composer's Notes Remembering Mikls Rzsa [Paperback]

A special Recollection, written to commemorate the 2007 centenary of the composer's birth on April 18, 1907.Mikl?s R?zsa composed the music for nearly 100 films. In this book, the author shares his own personal remembrances of the composer, the private vignettes he witnessed, specific anecdotes, personal photos, and facsimiles of R?zsa's manuscripts. The author also presents some of the private correspondence between him and the composer over a more than 20-year period, including photographic copies of the innumerable handwritten letters and notes he received from Dr. R?zsa during the decades of their friendship. These missives outline the evolution of the camaraderie and rapport that developed between the two men, offer insight into the kind of relationship between them, and reveal features of the composer's own character. The author began his connection with R?zsa as a fan but ultimately became an earnest student first of R?zsa's film music and then of his concert music-and, eventually, a friend.Available:-online from the iUniverse website: www.iUniverse.com-online from www.amazon.com and from www.bn.com-from bookstores.Cover design by Emil Tochilovsky.
