Great pictures. Music through the ages. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful book! *by S***S on October 16, 2025* I purchased this as a Christmas gift last year for my brother-in-law, who is very much into history books and music. He absolutely loves it. The cover is stunning, and it's quite thick and chock full of information. Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good survey book *by D***H on April 25, 2024* I gave this to a young teen who has a interest in a wide variety of musical instruments, both common and exotic, and he loved it. Nice hefty hard-cover, glossy, profusely illustrated pages, and nice solid--if concise-- descriptions of each item. Great for any kid with musical interests, and also makes a nice coffee-table book for adults. ## Frequently Bought Together - Music: The Definitive Visual History (DK Definitive Visual Encyclopedias) - Universe, Third Edition (DK Definitive Visual Encyclopedias) - The Science of the Earth: The Secrets of Our Planet Revealed (DK Secret World Encyclopedias) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/358224787-music-the-definitive-visual-history-dk-definitive-visual-encyclopedias](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/358224787-music-the-definitive-visual-history-dk-definitive-visual-encyclopedias) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
