Recenzii

"Philip Hart, who knew [Reiner] well, is an ideal biographer, admiring yet cognizant of his subject's darker side." --Notes

"Most admirable in this obvious labor of devotion--research began in 1983--is the minutiae unearthed, out of which Hart has reconstructed a career that ought to have been globally stellar but for Reiner's willful and repeated refusals to cooperate." --Chicago Tribune

"[A] detailed and painstakingly researched study which reveals a full and powerful portrait of Reiner as both man and musician." --International Classical Record Collector
