This was one my music history texts at university. A bit dry, but still interesting.
Not bad; my favorite bit is the part where Mozart says he went to get ice cream after a show.
nice collection of history documents from the medieval period to... uh... i dunno, i only read up to the baroque. Used for Music History courses under Dr. Burkholder at Indiana University
