Description
This is a leather bound signed numbered first edition of Isaac Stern' best-selling memoir - "My First 79 Years", a fascinating book written by one of the most popular classical music violinists and conductors of all time. A very exciting reading, describing both his successful music career and his personal life. There is no more beloved musician in the classical world than Isaac Stern, revered not only as a great violinist but also as a generous personality and a crucial figure in the world of the arts. One of the few people who has known every major classical musician of the last two-thirds of the twentieth century, he shares his personal and artistic experiences in this warm, passionate account of his life: the story of his rise to eminence; his feelings about music and the violin; and his great friendships and collaborations with colleagues such as Leonard Bernstein and Pablo Casals. Stern the man, the musician, and the cultural institution come alive in the most readable and revealing musical autobiography of the decade. The book is unread and in great condition. Signed by the famous classical music legend on the limitation page, this is copy number 307 of only 1075 ever printed.
