ABOUT THE CONTENT
Based on The Classical Music Minute podcast, each story brings a different composer or work to life. Whether it's learning that Mozart loved silly jokes, that Bach once got into a sword fight, or that Beethoven's deafness shaped his most transcendent music — you'll come away from every minute knowing something delightful, and a little more in love with the music.
