From the library of noted musicologist Stanley Boorman (b. 1939), with his signature to outer corner of upper wrapper.
Slightly worn. ["Musorgsky's] greatest achievements were as a composer of operas and solo songs. Largely self-taught and highly intellectual, he discovered a way of writing for the voice that was both lyrical and true to the inflections of speech. He was the most strikingly individual Russian composer of the later 19th century and an avatar of modernism for the generation of Debussy and Ravel." Robert W. Oldani in Grove Music Online.
