The name is Norman Lebrecht (1948-)
the music critic of the London
Daily Telegraph.

Maestro Myth dates from 1991

He is also author of
The Companion to 20th Century Music (1993)
which is packed with iconoclasms and dismissive remarks.
It has received some very hostile reviews...

And further revelations appear in
When the Music Stops -
Managers, Maestros and the Corporate Murder
of Classical Music (1996) Simon and Schuster

His arguments are forceful, compelling and merciless
and, in some rarefied administrative quarters, deeply resented.

Top fees are listed for conductors, singers and players
