Igor Stravinsky: An Autobiography

<em>An Autobiography</em> chronicles the first half-century of Stravinskys life, all the while offering his opinions and "abhorrences." A <em>Parsifal</em> performance at Bayreuth? "At the end of a quarter of an hour I could bear no more." Nijinsky? "The poor boy knew nothing of music." Spanish folk music? "Endless preliminary chords of guitar playing."
