Description
When you see him on the international stage today and listen to his exquisite sound, it is hard to believe that Albrecht Mayer, the world-famous oboist who enchants audiences with his ‘instrument of destiny’, was once a stuttering, awkward boy whose potential lay dormant, unknown to anyone.
In his autobiography, Albrecht Mayer describes his journey from an insecure childhood to the pinnacle of the music world. He gives a very personal account of the obstacles he faced, the people who helped him along the way, and of performing with the most famous musicians in the world’s greatest concert halls.
But despite all his success, he has never forgotten the stigma of stuttering and the happiness of having found his true place in the world despite his impairment.
This is the deeply moving biography of a man who has experienced the healing power of music and today embodies it with great charisma.
