Unfinished Symphonies by Rosemary brown / 1971 / 174 pages.
This is the extraordinary story of Rosemary brown, a
South London widow, whose remarkable psychic powers enable her to
communicate with several great composers of the past. With very little
musical training or experience, she is inspired by Liszt, Chopin,
Beethoven and Bach, among others, to compose, write down and play works of
which composer Richard Rodney Bennett said "You couldn't fake music
like this without years of training". In this fascinating
autobiography, Rosemary brown describes the famous musicians who appear to
her, their tastes, appearance, and mannerisms. Everyone loves a mystery.
Whichever side one takes on the questions of communication with the dead,
Rosemary is clearly a musical mystery.
