Abby's October Read

That's just uncanny Rae. It's like you knew I'd be starting Mozart: A Life by Maynard Solomon very soon. Weird!

So...that's going to be my October read. We're introducing the girls to opera, starting with The Magic Flute (which is by Mozart), and I'm taking advantage of already thinking about Mozart to pick up a biography of him and learn more about him. Later I'd like to read the Grove Composer Series biography of him, but I think it might be a little dry and from what I understand Solomon writes well. I'm still new to the world of biographies and want something that won't read like a history textbook. So I'll let you know how it goes!
