"Pretty much everything one can imagine relating to music as well as more that you can’t is included in the densely packed pages. Truly international in perspective, the presentation begins with a world map."

"Whilst Music: A Fold-Out Graphic History towers over even the tallest of people; it is the probably one of the most accessible and easy to follow guides about music for all, from children in their early years to adults, by explaining things in small, informative, bitesize chunks."

"The cover alone is superb and begs opening! When you do open this wonderful book you are presented with an accordion of pages all about music, orchestras, composers, singers and so much more! The illustrations are stunning and bring to life a history of music for young readers."
