'Chamber music is the most intimate, and arguably the most joyful and sociable, form of music-making in the world.
It may also be the oldest, and its scope is all-embracing, ranging from infectious light entertainment to profound explorations of the human spirit, from boisterous humour to the outer reaches of intellectual adventure, and in time from pre-history to the present.
More than any other, it is the music of community - organised, spontaneous, bonding and liberating.
This survey, containing surprises for newcomer and connoisseur alike, explores the nature and development of the genre in its social and historical context, through a rich and entertaining tapestry of text.
