In her book How to Hear Classical Music, flautist and music lecturer Davinia Caddy shares her thoughts on today’s music scene, and explains classical music to anyone who loves it or has ever been intimidated by it.

As in her popular monthly slot on Saturday Mornings with Kim Hill, Davinia offers a fresh take on the music of old classical masters, describing what makes music classical and why. She discusses her aims and intentions in writing her book, and what she learned along the way.
