![The Association for Recorded Sound Collections has announced the winners of the 2018 ARSC Awards for Excellence in Historical Recorded Sound Research. In the area of Best Historical Research in Recorded Classical Music, the Best History winner is Harvey Sachs, for his book Toscanini: Musician of Conscience. New York: Liveright Publishing Corporation, a division of W.W. Norton & Company, 2017. [ML422.T67 S35 2017] Sachs produced a biography of Toscanini in 1978, but as archives continued to open and Sachs was able to interview an ever-expanding list of relatives and associates, he came to realize that this remarkable life demanded a completely new work. From the publisher: “Toscanini becomes not only the definitive biography of the conductor, but a work that soars in its exploration of musical genius and moral conscience, taking its place among the great musical biographies of our time.” #arscawards #associationforrecordedsoundcollections #toscanini #arturotoscanini #harveysachs #millsmusiclibrary](https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/vp/f5e6ed48521431444e49945ef93858ae/5C2E20FC/t51.2885-15/e35/s150x150/40798680_251507178887040_3613807401623453373_n.jpg)
