 | | It starts at the beginning of his life, giving an account of his childhood - which we learn has an important impact on the subject matter he chooses for his musicals - through to 1998 when the book was published. | | | In the American South, blacks and whites have been influencing each other's music for generations, from the hymns of the 18th century to the soul music of the 60s. | | | It is clear, from the biography, that Sondheim is a very clever man: in his lyrics, each word is critical to the song, to the character, to the progression of the show; in his music, not a note is wasted. |
