London, Frederick Muller, 1981. First edition. Black cloth hardcover, 24 x 16 cm, 152 pp. No dust jacket (you can find one easily in the UK or USA if you wish so). With title, author's name and editor's name on spine. Signed by author on free end paper. Illustrated with numerous black and white pictures. This is a series of orchestra conductor's profiles sorted by alphabetical order. An interesting, perhaps even encyclopedical reading for the connoisseurs of classical music. Cloth shows some defect at the bottom of the spine and front cover, some foxing on the first pages, otherwise a good copy. Other pages are clean and the binding is sturdy.
