Review: A great book on the history of western music. - I've been in music all my life. This is a great book filled with enlightening eye-candy images as well as a great history of western music over a long period of time. But then again, DK books never seem to be bad, not any of them. A great book.
Review: Great Overview - This is a really good bird’s eye view of how music has developed over the years. I really like the short, focused chapters. Easy to read, but good information. I recommend this to any fan of music, especially “classical” music.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Made me more interested in classical music but it gets technical at times
*by L***T on July 30, 2019*

This is an excellent compendium of facts, chronologically -edited and explanations of the evolution and history of music with incredible illustrations and biographical notes from the composers. It gets a little bit technical at times but if you are interested in learning, I found it was best accompanied by hearing the example that was being explained while reading. I have learned so much from this and has made me a lot more interested in classical music. It also made me really curious to explore the rest of the books in this series as a way to expand my knowledge in other interesting topics to me, as the layoff of the book is so digestible if you are patient
