Notes
"Like its predecessor, 'Of men and music', this book is based on a series of radio talks. They were delivered as part or the Columbia broadcasting system's broadcasts of the Sunday-afternoon concerts of the New York Philharmonic-symphony orchestra during the seasons of 1937-1938 and 1938-1939, and have been augmented by various articles and reviews that I wrote for Stage, Woman's day and the late New York world and Vanity fair"--Introd.
