Trade Review
"Stinson is lucid and well organized, and he includes many high-quality facismiles of the original sources. He gives an up-to-date synthesis of recent scholarship on the collection, in particular of German writings that may be unfamiliar to English speakers."--Notes
"A valuable introduction to these unique organ chorales." --Music and Letters
"Stinson's treatment of the individual preludes is unfailingly just and sensitive, and abounds in valuable insights."--Early Music
