Authorities agree that no particular musical celebrity is described or satirized; all review the book with enthusiasm, though some damn while others praise.
Times Review: “Of extraordinary interest as a study from the inside of the inwardness of a genius.”
Bookman: “Much of that exquisite egotism, the huge, artistic Me and the tiny universe, that gluttony of the emotions, of the whole peculiar compound of hysteria, inspiration, vanity, insight and fidgets, which goes to make up that delightful but somewhat rickety thing which we call the artistic temperament is reproduced.... The ‘Diary of a Musician’ does what most actual diaries fail to do—writes down a man in full.”
Henry Holt and Company
