"In an era when women couldn't become conductors, Antonia Brico didn't listen to discouraging words. The words went in one ear and out the other. The second title in Penny Candy's Amazing Women Series of nonfiction picture books, In One Ear and Out the Other: The Amazing, Musical Life of Antonia Brico tells the story of one woman's fight to gain recognition as a conductor in an era when men dominated classical music. The first woman to guest-conduct the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, Antonia Brico never secured a permanent conducting job with a major symphony-but her contributions paved the way for the many women conductors to follow. A true visionary in the long fight for equal opportunities for women"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

The illustrations are gorgeous, colourful and inviting. I really liked the style and vibed well with it.
This story would work best for kids aged 6 to 12. Older crowds might enjoy seeing this wonderful non-fiction story painted in images. The story is short but presented like a short chapter book with beautiful pictures.
Overall, this book is a great story to introduce readers to a true story! I'd highly recommend it, especially as someone who has always loved music.
Four out of five stars.
