Reeves
 Composers - Hystery of Music
  A satirical look at some 50-odd composers (some more odd than others). Commencing from the Engligh Tudor period of William Byrd, it extends through the Barouque, Classical and Romantic periods to the 20th Century. This shamelessly anecdotal book touches on the eating habits of Rossini, the sordid murder plot which Berlioz had designed for his fiancess, and generally speaking, the contempt with which certain composers held other certain composers.

Tanner
 Opera Antics & Anecdotes (T'Accola - cartoonist)
  Author Stephen Tanner has had the good fortune to live and work in several European opera capitals, where he rubbed elbows with superstars and opera folk of just about every ilk. Many had droll lowbrow things to say about their very serious highbrow art — tales of bloopers, blithering idiocy, sex, vanity, jealousy, dirty tricks and just plain cussedness. The opera world, looking out from backstage, is fabulously different and funny. 202 pages. Paperbound.

Theaker
 Working Musician's Joke Book, A (Freen - cartoons)
  Ever wondered how many sopranos it takes to change a lightbulb? How about the difference between a euphonium and a chainsaw. Daniel Theaker has the answers to these and other burning questions in this lively collection of jokes by, for and about musicians. If you can't find yourself or your friends in this book, you're not looking hard enough. 88 pages. Paperbound.

Webb
 Trombamania 1
  Trombamania is a chronic mental disorder whose pathology remains as yet uncharted. Most Freudians would agree however that the trumpet, for instance, is a symbol of masculinity and therefore virility. It is an appendage of the extrovert. It means amplification of the voice, domination of one's fellows, a childish gratification of aggressive instinct. It it also flashy, and somehow more glamorous than the violin and the flute. If it is obvious why brass players are what they are, it remains a mystery why, when such a noble and perfect instrument as the bass trombone, for instance,exists, some people choose to play something else. 84 pages.
