Yehudiana: Reliving The Menhuin Odyssey [Book One]

Fountaindale Press, NSW, Australia, 2008. Softcover. As New. For those of you who have enjoyed the wonderful performances of Yehudi Menuhin over the years, or have benefited from his mentoring of up and coming musicians, an important biography of one of the century s great musicians has recently been published by my life-long friend Philip Bailey, who worked on the Menuhin staff from 1976 until Yehudi s death in 1999. This is no hagiography - it is an account based on a close working and professional relationship with Yehudi and his second wife Diana, on privileged access to the family and to private documents, and on years of careful research. The first 300-page volume, traces the Menuhin odyssey from anti-Semitic pogroms of late nineteenth-century Russia to the eve of Yehudi s second marriage in 1948 322 pages. Illustrated with black and white photographs. GIFT QUALITY. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos. Category: Music; Australia; Music Sheets & Scores; Signed Editions.
