About the Book

A memoir by the master pianist, conductor and internationalist Daniel Barenboim - "the closest thing that classical music can offer to Nelson Mandela" [THE TIMES]

"The power of music lies in its ability to speak to all aspects of the human being—the animal, the emotional, the intellectual, and the spiritual. Music teaches us, in short, that everything is connected."

Daniel Barenboim's new book vividly describes his lifelong pursuit of knowledge and understanding, not only of music and of life, but of one through the other.
