Description: | Select Guide Rating David Byrne's internationally bestselling magnum opus on the subject of music How Music Works is David Byrne''s bestselling, buoyant celebration of a subject he has spent a lifetime thinking about. Drawing on his own work over the years with Talking Heads, Brian Eno, and his myriad collaborators - along with journeys to Wagnerian opera houses, African villages, and anywhere music exists - Byrne shows how music emerges from cultural circumstance as much as individual creativity. It is his magnum opus, and an impassioned argument about music''s liberating, life-affirming power. |
