Arturo Toscanini, the son of poor tailors, astonished his second grade teacher when he played song after song on the piano just by listening and watching her play music. He had already impressed Signora Vernoni by reciting epic poems from memory, something she had never seen in her many years of teaching. She knew that her young pupil was destined for greatness and convinced his parents to send him to a music conservatory. Arturo won a scholarship to the prestigious school, taking his first step on the road to becoming a world famous conductor. This picture book biography details the early years of a fascinating prodigy, who was known for his perfection in interpreting musical scores and was called the "Einstein of music."
