{"product_id":"sorabji-paul-rapoport-9780859679237","title":"Sorabji: A Critical Celebration","description":"Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji (1892-1988) was an unusual legend in his own lifetime: a Parsi composer and critic living in England whose compositions are of such length and difficulty that he felt compelled to ban public performances of them. This book, the first devoted to Sorabji, explores his life and character, his music, his articles and letters. It both presents the legend accurately and dispels its exaggerated aspects. The portrait which emerges is not of a crank or eccentric but of a highly original and accomplished musical thinker whom recent performances and recordings confirm as unique and important.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Rapoport\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0859679233\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780859679237\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.13d","brand":"Paul Rapoport","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48443726266623,"sku":"9780859679237","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3c216df6-6c13-4fdb-ab7e-3b38eb6a69e9.jpg?v=1777207414","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sorabji-paul-rapoport-9780859679237","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
