Download or read book Bach s Art of Fugue and Musical Offering written by Matthew Dirst and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Bach's Art of Fugue and Musical Offering is the first comprehensive study of two closely related masterworks of the late Baroque fugal style. The initial volume in a series of American Bach Society Guides produced in collaboration with Oxford University Press, it unpacks these famously cerebral collections as endlessly fascinating material for study and play. Intended for a general readership, this compact guide also summarizes for practitioners a considerable body of knowledge about these singular works. Bach scholar and keyboard player Matthew Dirst explains their idiosyncratic musical language in initial chapters while reviewing how both projects took shape during Bach's final decade, as he reoriented his creative energies around capstone works of various kinds. The most systematic of these, the Art of Fugue and Musical Offering reflect his lifelong fascination with learned counterpoint, as demonstrated in elaborate series of fugues and canons in both and in an unusually intricate trio sonata in the latter. Later chapters provide commentary on individual movements and groups of pieces and on the historical reception of this music, including its impact on other disciplines. Recurring themes include Bach's diligent exploration of contrapuntal types and techniques, his embrace of musical games of various sorts, and his creative assimilation of diverse musical styles"--

Download or read book J S Bach s The Art of Fugue written by Hans Heinrich Eggebrecht and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1993 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this text, the author develops a new interpretation of J.S. Bach's The Art of Fugue, based on a profound knowledge of Baroque-era thought and intense score study. Starting with the work's celebrated BACH theme, he attempts to show that The Art of Fugue contains an assertion of the composer's deeply held faith, and that aspects of Bach's spiritual convictions permeate the entire musical fabric of the work. The author postulates that The Art of Fugue is actually a musical representation of Bach's beliefs about the God-human relationship, and argues that the Christian doctrine of "salvation by grace" is the core concept that provides the work with its expressive content in much the same way that the opening ground-theme subject acts as a basic generating source for all subsequent musical materials. Although The Art of Fugue is regarded by the musical world as one of the most significant examples of Bach's contrapuntal craft, the author convincingly argues that this work has an important spiritual dimension that goes beyond considerations of the composer's craftsmanship. He devotes this book to a lively and controversial discussion of unprovable matters; that is, to those aspects of expressive content which he believes are concealed both within and beyond the musical materials.

Download or read book Rethinking J S Bach s The Art of Fugue written by Anatoly Milka and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The enigmatic character of The Art of Fugue became apparent as early as in its first edition, printed more than a year after the composer’s death. Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, who published both the first and the second editions, raised several unsolved questions regarding this opus. Anatoly P Milka presents a consistent and coherent solution to the unresolved questions about the history, structure and appearance of J.S. Bach’s The Art of Fugue, opening new perspectives for further exploration of this musical masterpiece. Milka challenges the present scholarly consensus that there exist two different versions of The Art of Fugue (the Autograph and the Original Edition) and argues that Bach had considered four versions, of which only two are apparent and have been discussed so far. Only Bach’s illness and death prevented him from fulfilling his plan and publishing a fourth, conclusive version of his opus.
