I thought it might interest you to know that I published a new biography of Gustav Mahler a few months ago - it was published in association with the Gustav Mahler Society UK. The title is 'To Live for You! To Die for You! The Life of Gustav Mahler.' It is in hardback, superbly printed and includes a portrait of the great man by myself! It took me 10 years of research and thousands of miles of travel, and many experts, including Henry-Louis de La Grange, helped me on my way.
I am frequently asked by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales to give pre-concert talks before Mahler concerts.
