Mozart, Beethoven, Shostakovich, Verdi, Debussy.... To listen to their music is to feel the breath of the French Revolution, to feel the luxury of empire or the terror of dictatorship. Their talent became their way of expressing their attitude to the world, it inspired people to accomplish things and gave them hope. From this book you will learn how the great classical masterpieces were created and what helped them achieve centuries of fame. In the book "Musicians in the epicenter of history" collected the fates of 13 composers who found themselves in the vortex of political and social events of their time. Despite all the difficulties, they did not break down and managed to take control of this time, giving us in their compositions living testimonies of what was happening.
