Description

Sir Antonio Pappano's memoir is a deeply personal exploration of classical music and its enduring power to inspire and enlighten. Born into a family that nurtured his love of music from an early age, Pappano recounts the story of how he came to become one of the world's most celebrated conductors. From his childhood days accompanying his father's singing lessons to his current role as Music Director of the Royal Opera House, Pappano shares stories and insights into a wide-ranging repertoire that spans operas and orchestral works by Mozart, Birtwistle, and Mark Anthony Turnage, as well as art song and chamber music. Along the way, he makes a compelling case for classical music's ability to captivate new audiences. Through his memoir, Pappano offers a unique perspective on the world of classical music, one that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
