The music of the Dutch composer Alphons Diepenbrock (1862-1921) is one of the glories of European late-Romantic culture, although is hardly known outside his native Netherlands. This translation makes Leo Samama's masterly study of Diepenbrock available to non-Dutch readers for the first time.

Leo Samama, born in 1951, studied musicology and composition before teaching at the Utrecht Conservatoire, the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague and Utrecht University between 1977 and 1992. He was also a critic for several prominent Dutch newspapers and magazines. From 1988 to 1994 he sat on the board of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra Amsterdam as artistic advisor. Beginning in 1994 he was artistic administrator of the Residentie Orkest The Hague and from 2003 general and artistic manager of the famous Netherlands Chamber Choir. As a musicologist, he is best known internationally as an authority on Dutch music; at home, his lectures are streamed to an appreciative audience. He is also a composer, now over one hundred works to his credit; they are increasingly attracting performances, recordings and broadcasts the world around. In 2010 he was knighted as an Officer of the Order of Orange-Nassau for his contribution to Dutch musical life.
