"Berlioz the person-composer-writer is the sensitive child of his century and a most passionate voice of his time." —The Opera Quarterly"Berlioz could hardly have been better served than by the translator of this English edition . . . It is an invaluable and long-overdue addition to the Berlioz literature in English.

Elisabeth Csicsery-Rónay has given us an A travers chants for the millennium." —Music and LettersHector Berlioz (1803-1869) was equally prominent as composer and music critic.
