From the back cover:

Music abides as an elemental force in the lives and situations chronicled in each of these seventeen stories and a concluding novella....What all the characters share is a desire to follow Emerson's advice to "make much of your own place."


The collection is in three parts, the first group of stories inspired by jazz, the second by classical music, the third part a fusion resulting in a novella.

Here below is the Table Of Contents, and the Acknowledgments page.
