Description:
Peter Gülke's essays are dedicated to the major theme of death and farewell in music, but also in literature. With inimitable linguistic power, he presents insights that are of general interest and significant for the cultural discourse on death and transience.
Music has been characterized as the one of the arts that speaks of transience and death in a special way. But how does it do this? Peter Gülke provides a variety of answers.
Peter Gülke belongs to that rare breed of authors who, through the breadth, depth and wealth of their stupendous knowledge, can not only instruct you in a rousing way, but also amaze and inspire you. Because only a fool will feel "intimidated by so much education" by such a writer, who presents his treasures of knowledge to us readers as naturally as an oriental carpet dealer who spreads out his artfully woven masterpieces in front of you with unmistakable love. (Wolfram Schütte)
