Best single volume guide to classical music


For a Valentine’s Day present.  Preferably fun to read.  Doesn’t need to get deep into minuscia. At this point in our evolution, I could imagine one with QR codes to take the reader to great performances of pieces.  Or a downloadable supplement!  But I doubt that exists.  Anyhow - thanks in advance.

@fredapplegate Thanks for the suggestion, but not really what I'm looking for.  Want a book about the composers and the compositions rather than the performers.

@goethe58 Looks interesting! Perhaps one can find the same referenced pieces on Qobuz....
