Landscapes in Music: David B. Knight
I don't know what I was expecting from this book but it turned out to be a
straightforward series of chapters on different aspects of the landscape and
music associated with them - Debussy's 'La Mer', Richard Strauss's 'Alpine
Symphony' and so on. There were references to a number of modern composers not know to me but I felt that the author was straining his brief
rather in including mystic and imagined landscapes and also by reversing
the equation and having a chapter on places where music is performed. I am
glad I made the effort to read it but not that impressed: possibly useful as a
reference.
