This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and work of one of the greatest composers of the Romantic era.He was so entirely filled with the sentiments whose most perfect types he believed he had known in his own youth, with the ideas which it alone pleased him to confide to art; he contemplated art so invariably from the same point of view, that his artistic preferences could not fail to be influenced by his early impressions. In the great models and CHEFS-D'OEUVRE, he only sought that which was in correspondence with his own soul. That which stood in relation to it pleased him; that which resembled it not, scarcely obtained justice from him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
