There are all sorts of people, events and sounds that exist in the musical world for which there are no words.
We have been sadly bereft of a satisfactory way to describe the contortion of a singer’s mouth when reaching for the high notes; the audience member who leaves a concert halfway through the grand finale; or that person who places one finger in their ear and raises their eyes heavenwards when they sing.; Tim Lihoreau neatly solves this problem in The Classic FM Musical Treasury.
Having scoured the UK for place names with a musical bent, he has created a charming collection of humorously inventive, musically themed meanings.
From choral singing to rock concerts, opera and orchestras, this quirky book will delight music fans everywhere.
