The autobiography of the king of musicals, in which he decided to remove every mask and open his soul to readers. An Oscar winner, seven Grammy Awards, and many other accolades—he will tell you everything about himself. How he created the most famous works that have for years made our hearts tighten with wonder—Cats, The Phantom of the Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar, and others. With sharp wit and irony, the maestro looks at his life as if from above and tells us the entire story of his life—without embellishing and without hiding. He analyzes his actions and decisions that led him to where he is now; he recalls the hard periods of life and what helped him not to give up and move forward; he shares his innermost thoughts—what inspires him and what his biggest dream is. The Oscar winner devotes a great deal of attention to his creative life: with warmth he remembers decades when theatrical music went beyond the theater and became distinct and original, and he also tells about the making of his major masterpieces. Even if you’ve never heard of Andrew Lloyd Webber before, after listening to this book you won’t be able not to love him.
