Days with the Great Composers

by May Gillington Byron ( - 1936)

These light entertainments, originally published anonymously, are an imagined day in the life of each composer (Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schubert, Chopin, Wagner, Gounod, Mozart, Schumann, Tschaikovsky). This gives the author scope to describe each one's work and life, sketchily, of course, but interestingly. (Summary by David Wales)

Note: This is a compilation of three books, each describing three composers. The second book - middle three chapters - has no online version as of yet.
