Norman Lebrecht

Lebrecht in 2004 Norman Lebrecht (born 11 July 1948) is a British music journalist and author who specializes in classical music. He is best known as the owner of the classical music blog ''Slipped Disc'', in which he frequently publishes articles. Unlike other writers on music, Lebrecht rarely reviews concerts or recordings, preferring to report on the people and organizations who engage in classical music. Described by Gilbert Kaplan as "surely the most controversial and arguably the most influential journalist covering classical music", his writings have been praised as entertaining and revealing, while others have accused them of sensationalism and criticized their inaccuracies.

He was a columnist for ''The Daily Telegraph'' from 1994 to 2002, and assistant editor of the ''London Evening Standard'' from 2002 to 2009. On BBC Radio 3, Lebrecht presented ''lebrecht.live'' beginning in 2000, and ''The Lebrecht Interview'' from 2006 to 2016. He also wrote a column for the magazine ''Standpoint'', which ceased publication in 2021.

In additions to writings on the classical music industry, Lebrecht has written 12 books on music and novels ''The Song of Names'' (2001) and ''The Game of Opposites: A Novel'' (2009). The former won a 2002 Whitbread Award and was adapted into a film of the same name directed by François Girard. A work of social history, ''Genius and Anxiety: How Jews Changed the World, 1847–1947'', was published in 2019. Provided by Wikipedia
