The lists and detailed information go on and on. There is even a sub-chapter on every renovation Chicago’s Orchestra Hall received during Jacobs’ tenure.
An entire chapter is devoted to York tubas, another to Jacobs’ studio through the years, and another to biographies of all the conductors of the Chicago Symphony including major guest conductors. Information such as a list of every brass player who ever played in the Chicago Symphony and a listing of every recording Arnold Jacobs made either with a symphony or as a soloist or chamber musician help put his astonishing career into perspective.
In addition to a detailed and exhaustive biography, this book also contains a plethora of material not only exhaustively detailing virtually every aspect of Jacobs’ teaching but also a seemingly inexhaustible supply of information associated with him.
