As featured on CNN, Forbes and Inc – BookAuthority identifies and rates the best books in the world, based on recommendations by thought leaders and experts.

This is the moment in an opera where a lead character shows off his or her vocal chops. While it may serve to dramatically enhance the storyline, it’s really for the singer to milk the applause for all it’s worth. Any opera “hit” you’re familiar with is usually an aria, often lifted from an opera and presented in a symphony concert or a concert featuring several singers, each performing arias from various operas. They’re often filled with exciting high notes and the audience goes berserk afterwards.

1. Samuel Barber: Violin Concerto

If you’re grappling with the literary boom that brought us what became known as the ‘Great American Novel’, you’ll need a suitably Yank-inclined soundtrack to aid your reading.

Whether it’s Fitzgerald or Baldwin or Bellow, it’s essential to listen to a piece which captures and crystallises an American state of mind.

There are of countless examples, but Barber’s violin concerto is a true American great: grandstanding and slick, but deeply emotional in its slower passages, it’ll bring out the lyrical zip of the right novel.


2. Joseph Haydn: Symphonies

Reading the classics? Need to feel the perfect mix of stately propriety and cheekiness to go with your subtly subversive comment on high society?

Haydn’s status as a mere courtly composer does him a bit of a disservice, and likewise, the true impact of greats like Jane Austen wasn’t truly appreciated until much later. And paired together, it really works.


3. Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 7 (second movement)

Taking in the complex and circulatory narratives of a classic crime thriller needs a contemplative soundtrack as you survey all the angles and try to work out whodunnit.

Cycling through the suspects in an Agatha Christie vignette means evaluating the options over and over, and Beethoven’s cyclical, haunting and tense motif will help you mull over the motives.
