    <body><![CDATA[One of the most enjoyable books on music I have been able to read and listen to.  Kamien provides readers with solid historical information about the development of the many musical styles that have manifested throughout human history.  I gave this book to the music teacher some two years ago.  I am very glad to see that he still uses as a key reference point.]]></body>
