About this book
Hector Berlioz opens this treatise on conducting by weighing the go-betweens who stand between a composer and the public. A bad singer spoils only his own part, he says, while an incompetent conductor ruins all. He goes on to explain why audiences hearing a new work seldom know who is at fault. Berlioz, the French composer of the Symphonie fantastique, wrote as a working conductor.
