Christoph Wolff, the eminent Bach authority, uses collected documentary materials on Bach�s life and his complete musical works and their sources to study Bach within his family and community and also within the intellectual and cultural milieu of the late 17th and 18th-century Germany in a new biographical portrait. Fine reading for anyone with musical interests but a must-read for those who play and study Bach�s music. 600 pages include a chronology and bibliography, softbound. |
