Summary: Music was their link with God.
Review: This is a great book for my Music History class in a catholic high school. The brief biographies are interesting and inspiring. Many composers as well as artists have suffered with psychiatric disorders, or were considered eccentric, or otherwise "different", but that should never discount their belief and faith in God. The positive and spiritual changes they made in life are more meaningful than the sins they may have committed, especially being closer to God just before death.

Summary: This is an essential book for any classical music lover!
Review: Wether or not you are a Christian, you will enjoy this book. I am a believer and classical music lover so when I read this book, I loved it. It is not all about the composers as people, but the composers as God's tools for touching the lives of thousands, perhaps millions!...
