This book makes for excellent dinner conversation. I love facts, and these are especially interesting in that you don’t normally hear about these sorts of things. The book is excellent not only for someone who is in the music world but also for the average person. Did you know there was a concert that lasted 453 hours straight? Did you know the trombone was manufactured from weaponry? Did you know the Philippines is the polka champion? Why do catchy tunes get stuck in our head? Do plants grow better with music and can music change how food tastes? These are some of the questions answered in this interesting book. Great trivia!
