About the books (taken from amazon.com):

Coffee with Mozart: Imagine: Mozart, near death, positioned at just the point when he can reflect on the entirety of his relatively short, but amazingly productive life. Julian Rushton, an Emeritus Professor of Music and author of the New Grove Guide to Mozart and His Music, takes us to him at just that time. The former child genius discusses his upbringing as a wunderkind, his contacts with patrons and fellow musicians, his views on his own works, his method of composing, his teaching and performing, and his life, loves, and the world outside music as well.

Yehudi Menuhin: World-famous violinist Yehudi Menuhin revisits familiar ground in Unfinished Journey: Twenty Years Later, a revised and updated edition of his 1976 autobiography. A prodigy who made his concert debut at age 7, Menuhin later became a conductor and revered educator, founding several schools as well as an international foundation. Along the way he cultivated friendships with some of the most illustrious figures of his age; Bela Bartók, Benjamin Britten, and Pablo Casals all play prominent roles in Menuhin's life story, with luminaries such as Willa Cather, Charles de Gaulle, and Pope John Paul II making walk-on appearances. Played out against the turbulent landscape of the 20th century, Menuhin's story often reads like the best kind of fiction. After one performance, Einstein rushes across the stage to embrace the young violinist, crying, "Now I know there is a God in heaven!" Later, Menuhin and Britten play a poignant concert for recently liberated victims of the concentration camp Belsen, performing in the theater once reserved for their SS oppressors.

Van Cliburn:
From Library Journal It has been 35 years since this native of Kilgore, Texas, rose to instant world prominence by winning the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. In an undisguised and unrelievedly adulatory biography, Reich gives a play-by-play description of all the events leading to the competition, as well as to the other triumphs in Cliburn's life. The clearest indication that this monograph is hardly impartial can be found in the foreword, where the author suggests that the 1991 Moscow uprising had its origins in Cliburn's victory at the Tchaikovsky Competition, when the citizens had a "vicarious taste of Western-style freedom and openness." The writing is clear and breezy and presents an interesting behind-the-scenes view of music competitions. Still, the overall tone recommendes this book for exhaustive music collections only.
