About this product
Product Information
In this companion volume to his Pulitzer Prize--finalist biography, Johann Sebastian Bach: The Learned Musician , leading Bach scholar Christoph Wolff contextualizes his famous subject by delving deeply into the composer's rich collection of music. Emerging from this complex and massive oeuvre, Bach's Musical Universe is a focused discussion of a meaningful selection of compositions-- from the famous Well-Tempered Clavier, violin and cello solos, and Brandenburg Concertos to the St. Matthew Passion, Art of Fugue, and B- Minor Mass. Unlike any study undertaken before, this book details Bach's creative process across the various instrumental and vocal genres, and centers on what the composer himself judiciously presented in carefully designed benchmark collections and individual works-- all consequential to Bach's musical art. Tracing Bach's evolution as a composer, Wolff compellingly illuminates the ideals and legacy of this giant of classical music in a new, refreshing light for everyone, from the amateur to the virtuoso.

Reviews
Nobody writes about Bach with more authority, knowledge, and passion than does Christoph Wolff. This book--a great gift to all music lovers--is remarkable for showing how the largely self-taught composer set himself on a clear path to attain musical perfection., Bach's portrait, painted by Haussmann in 1748 and aptly described by Christoph Wolff as 'the composer's business card,' is the subject of the vivid and visual prologue of Wolff's newest oeuvre, Bach's Musical Universe. Wolff, with his customary erudition, thoughtfully colored with deep affection, writes of the benchmark works that Bach himself chose for his musical legacy--a brilliant summing-up!, Bach's Musical Universe is an exhilarating tour de force of erudition. The product of a lifetime of reflection, it is imaginatively conceived: comprehensive and abundantly detailed yet admirably coherent and clear, permeated throughout by keen, illuminating insights--a splendid achievement, indispensable for anyone fascinated by Bach., Having left no autobiography and hardly any letters, Johann Sebastian Bach has revealed himself only in his works. After Johann Sebastian Bach: The Learned Musician, Christoph Wolff has now given us completely new insight to Bach's work, in the light of composing procedure and his personal and social background. Through this thoughtful book, Bach comes even closer to us., Many of the finest musical minds have devoted themselves to Bach scholarship, none as comprehensively as Christoph Wolff. In his new book, he bears down on the music itself, following it wherever it leads, from the smallest secrecies to the largest designs.
