Julian Johnson, author of Mahler’s Voices
«”Full of energy and subtle understanding”, this is a Mahler biography for the twenty-first century. Stephen Downes weaves an intricate tapestry of the composer's life, loves, ideas and music that is as accessibly readable as it is intellectually and culturally stimulating.»
Jeremy Barham, Professor of Music, University of Surrey, and author of Rethinking Mahler
