Books by Julian Rushton

Presents musical connections between Britain and the continent of Europe, and Britain and its Empire. This book uses approaches and methods that recognize the integral role of music within a wider culture, including religious, political and social life. The topics range from Italian opera in Dublin to British musicians in Canada, and more.

A vivid portrait of Mozart, combining a well-reserched account of his life with an introduction to his works: symphonic,chamber, sacred, and theatrical.

This book is an analytical and critical study of Berlioz's unique musical style. It does not undertake to analyse all his works, but rather to separate characteristic elements and observe them in action. Berlioz's writings and those of his critics are called upon to help focus the discussion.
