    About this audiobook

    ‘If music be the food of love play on.’ The evocative words of William Shakespeare not only capture the addictive quality of love but also of music. Poets have an ability with their words and phrases to provide a rhythm, an atmosphere. When this is allied to their musings on music we are captivated.
