This book truly brings the Beethoven story to life and offers a new and fascinating insight into his development both as a composer and as a man – a must-have book for all those who appreciate Beethoven’s music, whether they are musicians, students or other music lovers, or for those who love historical novels.


Based on true events and told from the point of view of Beethoven himself, My Music, The Arch-rascals & Me - The Memoirs of Ludwig van Beethoven tells the story of one of the most fascinating personalities in the history of classical music.


Set in late-18th-century Bonn and early-19th-century Vienna, this novel is about family, friendship, and the power of reconciliation and unconditional love. Despite a troubled childhood, Beethoven grows into an ambitious and determined adult. However, as a composer, he craves the acceptance and acclaim he feels he deserves: as a man he yearns for inner peace. He now must have the courage to take an honest look at himself and attempt to eradicate the flaws in his character that destroy his peace of mind and damage his friendships.

Another book from Caroline J Sinclair, this time, bringing Sibelius's story to life and offering a new and fascinating insight into his development both as a composer and as a man – a must-have book for all those who appreciate Sibelius’s music, whether they are musicians, students or other music lovers, or for those who love historical novels.


Based on true events and told from Sibelius’s own point of view, My Music, My Drinking & Me - The Memoirs of Jean Sibelius is the story of Finland’s greatest composer, one of the foremost symphonists of the 20th century.


It is a turbulent and violent period in European history, and Finland is struggling to gain and maintain its independence. Sibelius is expected by many to be a spokesman for his country. However, he is uncomfortable with the position thrust upon him; he has no desire to make political statements through his music, wanting only to depict the elemental forces of Finnish nature. On a more personal level, he is battling with alcoholism; he believes that he needs alcohol to be able to write music, but does his drinking foster or hinder his creativity? Furthermore, if he does not give up drinking, it will cost him his marriage. Which is the stronger - his need to drink or his desire to save his marriage before it is too late? My Music, My Drinking & Me is as much about a marriage as about music. In it, Caroline J Sinclair has drawn a vivid picture of Sibelius’s family life, and of the country that inspired him to compose - his beloved Finland.
