A book on the life's work of Ernő Dohnányi (1877-1960) has been published by Oxford University Press, edited by James A. Grymes, Professor at the University of North Carolina and Veronika Kusz, Senior Research Fellow at the Institute for Musicology, HUN-REN RCH.

The Last Romantic in His Own Words, an internationally collaborative volume, provides a selection of the writings, letters and statements of the great Hungarian composer, pianist and conductor, with detailed accompanying studies and a rich annotated appendix. The book provides a more complete picture than ever before of the musician, long forgotten for undeserved political reasons, and summarises the results of nearly twenty-five years of international research on Dohnányi.
