Still chiefly known as the extravagant composer of the Symphonie
fantastique, Berlioz was an artist caught in the crossfire between
the academic classicism of the French musical establishment and the
romantic modernism of the Parisian musical scene. He was a thinker
in an age that invented both the religion of art and the notion of
the ''genius'' who preached and practised it. This Companion contains
essays by eminent scholars on Berlioz''s place in nineteenth-century
French cultural life, on his principal compositions symphonies,
overtures, operas, sacred works, songs, on his major writings a
delightful volume of memoires, a number of short stories, large
quantities of music criticism, an orchestration treatise, on his
direct and indirect encounters with other famous musicians Gluck,
Mozart, Beethoven, Wagner, and on his legacy in France. The volume
is framed by a detailed chronology of his life and a usefully
annotated bibliography.
