Lives of the Musicians: Good Times, Bad Times (and What the Neighbors Thought)

Lives of the Musicians: Good Times, Bad Times (and What the Neighbors Thought)

Written by: Kathleen Krull
Illustrated by: Kathryn Hewitt

"It's no secret that Beethoven went deaf, that Mozart had constant money problems, and that Gilbert and Sullivan wrote musicals. But what were these people - and other famous musicians - really like? What did they eat? What did they wear? How did they spend their time? And - possibly the most interesting of all - what did their neighbors think?

Here are the fascinating and often humorous stories of twenty famous musicians - people of all shapes, sizes, temperaments, and lifestyles from various countries and historical periods. Beginning with Vivaldi and ending with Woody Guthrie, Lives of the Musicians will appeal to everyone."
