The canon of classical music has always been brimming with works of musicians and composers of German origin. From 16th century icons Bach and Handel through to Wagner, Germany has consistently produced the most gifted and influential musicians in the world. Bach invented modern music and this music brought to its artistic peaks by fellow Germans, Mozart and Beethoven. 
 
The lives and achievements of these composers are described here along with other musical luminaries such as Chopin, Gluck, Hayden and Weber.  
 
This fascinating volume is a must read for anyone for whom music is an essential part of life.
