The book chronicles the life of the author, a musician and composer, as he reflects on his origins, education, and experiences in the world of music. Through personal anecdotes and observations, Adam provides insights into the musical scene of his time, including his relationships with other musicians and the dynamics of the artistic community. The opening of the book begins with biographical notes written by Adam himself, detailing his early life growing up in Paris, the influence of his father—a prominent piano teacher—and his struggles in education. He recalls his reluctance to learn traditional subjects, preferring to play music freely, and describes his gradual entry into the world of music through different institutions, friendships, and formative experiences. The narrative establishes a backdrop of the cultural and musical currents of the time, leading into Adam's ambitions and the challenges he faced in pursuit of his musical career.
