ABSOLUTELY ON MUSIC - HARUKI MURAKAMI SEIJI OZA...

A deeply personal  intimate conversation about music and writing between the internationally
acclaimed  best-selling author and the former conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.   In
Absolutely on Music  internationally Haruki Murakami sits down with his friend Seiji Ozawa  the
revered former conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra  for a series of conversations on
their shared passion: music. Over the course of two years  Murakami and Ozawa discuss
everything from Brahms to Beethoven  from Leonard Bernstein to Glenn Gould  from Bartók to
Mahler  and from pop-up orchestras to opera. They listen to and dissect recordings of some of
their favorite performances  and Murakami questions Ozawa about his career conducting
orchestras around the world. Culminating in Murakami's ten-day visit to the banks of Lake
Geneva to observe Ozawa's retreat for young musicians  the book is interspersed with
ruminations on record collecting  jazz clubs  orchestra halls  film scores  and much more. A
deep reflection on the essential nature of both music and writing  Absolutely on Music is an
unprecedented glimpse into the minds of two maestros.
