An Autobiography

An Autobiography

While many hundred thousands of pages have been written about Stravinsky, in this bookâ€•the composer's firstâ€•we hear from the man himself.
An Autobiography chronicles the first half-century of Stravinsky's life, all the while offering his opinions and "abhorrences." A Parsifal performance at Bayreuth? "At the end of a quarter of an hour I could bear no more." Nijinsky? "The poor boy knew nothing of music." Spanish folk music? "Endless preliminary chords of guitar playing."
