Symphony of Dreams
The Conductor and Patron Paul Sacher
»The life of the Swiss conductor and billionaire Paul Sacher has been
described as ›fifty lives full of secrets‹. Conductor, music- and
arts-patron, businessman, entrepreneur – Paul Sacher was all those
things.«
But how was it that a man born into a family with no
musical background was able to shape the face of contemporary classical
music for more than sixty years? How did the same man, who grow up in
modest circumstances, ultimately become one of the world's wealthiest
men? And how did he come to be the driving force behind one of the
world's most powerful pharmaceutical empires for more than a century?
These questions and many more are answered in Lesley Stephenson's
revealing biography of Paul Sacher.
