The Life & Legacy of Johannes Brahms in two volumes is a well researched biography of famous composer, written by his student Florence May. The biographical materials have been gathered chiefly in the course of several Continental journeys the author undertook with Brahms. The goal of the work was to present the biographical account of composer's life, and to help the regular music-lover to get acquainted with Brahms' life, not getting into technical analysis of his compositions.
