About the book
This delightful autobiography tells the remarkable journey Desmond Cecil took in his quest to follow his passion to perform music. Along with fascinating insights into his musical, diplomatic and energy callings and sharp anecdotes of some of the important European and British politicians of the past forty years, Cecil also renders tender and charming stories of the many famous musicians he has known and performed with -- nowadays on his own authentic Stradivari violin, formally entitled the '1724 Cecil'.
