The Cambridge Companion to Bach goes beyond a basic life-and-works study to provide a late twentieth-century perspective on J. S. Bach the man and composer. The book is divided into three parts. Part One is concerned with the historical context, the society, beliefs and the world-view of Bachs age. The second part discusses the music and Bachs compositional style, while Part Three considers Bachs influence and the performance and reception of his music through the succeeding generations. This Companion benefits from the insights and research of some of the most distinguished Bach scholars, and from it the reader will gain a notion of the diversity of current thought on this great composer. Provides comprehensive and indispensable background to thought and composition in Bachs day Includes theories of how and why Bachs achievement has been influential Contains new ways of understanding Bachs achievement and analysing and understanding the music
