ISBN: 9781844880645.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet in the 1880s and 90s, As Music and Splendour tells the story of two young Irish girls who are sent to Rome for training as opera singers. Rose red-haired, big-hearted and big-voiced is soon on track to become a prima donna soprano; Clare, also a soprano but subtler and less glamorous, is more at home with sacred music. While Rose juggles the affections of various men, Clare embarks on a passionate affair with her fellow-student Luisa. As Music in Splendour is a thrillingly readable and romantic novel from one of the very few truly important Irish novelists of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44944854220853,"sku":"ByrdShop_1844880648","price":220.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781844880645_421f2207-8743-4b15-8b0c-552df869d064.jpg?v=1778665114","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/as-music-splendour-9781844880645","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
