What reading level is Famous Composers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Eynard.
454 HECTOR BERLIOZ.
One of Hector's favorite books was a pastoral ro- mance, entitled " Estelle et Nemorin," which he had dis- covered in his father's library, and read again and again. "The nymph, the Hamadryad of St. Eynard," was also named Estelle. She was, says Berlioz, "tall, and of elegant figure, with great eyes armed for war, though they were always smiling, a head of hair worthy of adorning the helmet of Achilles, and feet, perhaps not Andalusian, but thoroughly Parisian, and r...ose-colored buskins ! " The first time that the boy saw this superior being, he felt an electric shock. He grew dizzy with mysteri- ous pain. " I spent whole nights," he says, " a prey to desolation. By day I hid in the corn-fields, in the secret retreats of my grandfather's orchard, like a wounded bird, silent and sad. Jealousy, that pallid companion of the purest love, tormented me if a man spoke the merest word to my idol." Forty years after, when he had forgotten the color of her hair, he still remembered her sparkling eyes, her rose-colored buskins, and still the clinking of his uncle Marmion's spurs as he danced with her brought a pang to his heart.
