Oxford University Press Johann Sebastian Bach
Book SynopsisAlthough we are acquainted with the music of J. S. Bach through countless performances and recordings, the composer himself continues to come across as the somewhat enigmatic figure depicted in a single, familiar portrait. Published in 2000 to mark the 250th anniversary of Bach''s death, author and leading Bach scholar Christoph Wolff presents a new picture that brings to life this towering figure of the Baroque era. Now available in paperback, this engaging biography portrays Bach as the living, breathing--and sometimes imperfect--human being that he was, while bringing to bear all the advances gained in the last half-century of Bach scholarship. Wolff demonstrates the intimate connection between the composer''s life and his music, showing how Bach''s superb inventiveness pervaded his career as a musician, composer, performer, scholar, and teacher. And throughout, we see Bach in the broader context of his time: its institutions, traditions, and influences. With this highly readable boTrade Revieweminently readable, at times even colloquial. Wolff is one of the foremost Bach scholars today, and his comprehensive knowledge of the source materials equips him admirably to write such a book ... all sorts of interesting details emerge. * John Kitchen, Early Music Today, Oct.-Nov. 2000 *Drawing on a lifetime's involvement with Bach's music, Professor Wolff has written what is undoubtedly the most authorative and up-to-date survey of the composer's life and works in English, and probably in any language. * Malcolm Boyd, The Gramophone *Musical biographies don't come much better than this ... no-one seriously interested in Bach should pass it by. * Bettina Neumann, Piano, July-Aug 2000 *this is a learned and satisfying account of Bach's work, temperament and milieu which will disappoint neither specialist nor general music lover. * Nicholas Anderson, BBC Music Magazine *Table of ContentsLIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS; PREFACE; PROLOGUE: BACH AND THE NOTION OF "MUSICAL SCIENCE"; EPILOGUE: BACH AND THE IDEA OF "MUSICAL PERFECTION"; NOTES; MUSIC EXAMPLES; 1.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Johann Sebastian Bach: Die Oratorien und die
Book SynopsisJohann Sebastian Bach krönte sein Schaffen geistlicher Musik mit Weihnachts-, Oster- und Himmelfahrtsoratorien sowie mit fünf Messvertonungen – gipfelnd in der monumentalen h-Moll-Messe, die als Vermächtnis angesehen werden kann. Für diese Werke verwendete er im Parodieverfahren häufig frühere Sätze, passte sie aber für die neue Komposition sorgfältig an. Durch Textvergleiche und die musikalische Gegenüberstellung von Vorlage und Parodie analysiert Friedhelm Krummacher den Aufbau dieser sehr besonderen Werke von der Gesamtanlage bis ins Detail und macht die Kunstfertigkeit des Bach’schen Verfahrens anschaulich. Dieses neue Buch ergänzt die zweibändige Publikation „Johann Sebastian Bach. Die Kantaten und Passionen“ (2018) von Krummacher zu einer Gesamtschau des geistlichen Werkes.Trade Review“... Diese ist Voraussetzung für interpretatorische Bemühungen, aber durchaus auch für ein „intellektuelles" Hören, das die kompositorischen Strukturen verstehen will. Darin liegt die Stärke des Bandes. ... Für einschlägige Bibliotheksbestände ist der Band neben den beiden anfangs genannten Bänden zu den Kantaten und Passionen ein Muß.” (Albert Raffelt, in: Informationsmittel für Bibliotheken, informationsmittel-fuer-bibliotheken.de, Jg. 30, Heft 4, 2022)Table of ContentsA.
