Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. Fugue for J. S. Bach was a natural language; he wrote fugues in organ toccatas and voluntaries, in masses and motets, in orchestral and chamber music, and even in his sonatas for violin solo. The more intimate fugues he wrote for keyboard are among the greatest, most influential, and best-loved works in all of Western music. They have long been the foundation of the keyboard repertory, played by beginning students and world-famous virtuosi alike. In a series of elegantly written essays, eminent musicologist Joseph Kerman discusses his favorite Bach keyboard fugues—some of them among the best-known fugues and others much less familiar. Kerman skillfully, at times playfully, reveals the inner workings of these pieces, linking the form of the fugues with their many different characters and expressive qualities, and illuminating what makes them particularly beautiful, powerful, and moving. These witty, insightful pieces, addressed to musical amateurs as well as to specialists and students, are beautifully augmented by performances made specially for this volume: Karen Rosenak, piano, playing two preludes and fugues fromTheWell-Tempered Clavier—C Major, book 1; and B Major, book 2--and Davitt Moroney playing the Fughetta in C Major, BWV 952, on clavichord; the Fugue on "Jesus Christus unser Heiland," BWV 689, on organ; and the Fantasy and Fugue in A Minor, BWV 904, on harpsichord.
Download or read book Outline Analysis of Each of J S Bach s Forty eight Fugues written by Brook Sampson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-02-19 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE. THE following outline analysis of each fugue is intended to provide the first stage upon which a more or less complete analysis, according to the requirements of each student, can he worked out by referring to "A Digest of the Analyses of J. S. Bach's Forty-eight Fugues." These fugues form part of the collection of Preludes and Fugues so well known as "the 48," and named Das Wohltemperirte Klavier (the Well-Tempered Clavier). The term "Well Tempered," refers to a system of tuning the clavier and other keyed instruments, which was in opposition to the then prevailing system. The musicians of that time (eighteenth century) began to feel that changes of key must be more extended, therefore they wished to have their claviers tuned on the "equal temperament system," which allowed a performer to play in any key. Bach thoroughly believed in this new system, and composed a Prelude and Fugue in every major and minor key, forming the first volume of twenty-four. This first set was completed in 1722, and a second set of twenty-four about the year 1744. Sir Hubert Parry in his most interesting book entitled " The Story of the Development of a Great Personality," says: - "The adoption of this name 'Das Wohltemperirte Clavier' (Well Tempered Clavier) by Bach, was a public and deliberate recognition of a radical change in the construction of European scales, of such pre-eminent importance, that it is no exaggeration to say, that without it modern musical art would have been absolutely impossible." The following extract from the periodical named will be interesting to many : - "Old readers of The Organist and Choirmaster will remember an article which appeared in our columns some years ago, describing a visit of the (then) three Editors (with several other professional friends) to Miss Eliza Wesley at Islington. That lady had in her possession in those days Bach's own autograph of the Second Volume (with the exception of a few pages). This MS. belonged to her father, Samuel Wesley, one of the earliest English editors of the 48; and after Miss Wesley's death, it was sent to the British Museum, where it can now be seen."
Download or read book Bach s Well tempered Clavier written by David Ledbetter and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bach's Well-tempered Clavier (or the 48 Preludes and Fugues) stands at the core of baroque keyboard music and has been a model and inspiration for performers and composers ever since it was written. This invaluable guide to the 96 pieces explains Bach's various purposes in compiling the music, describes the rich traditions on which he drew, and provides commentaries for each prelude and fugue. In his text, David Ledbetter addresses the main focal points mentioned by Bach in his original 1722 title page. Drawing on Bach literature over the past three hundred years, he explores German traditions of composition types and Bach's novel expansion of them; explains Bach's instruments and innovations in keyboard technique in the general context of early eighteenth-century developments; reviews instructive and theoretical literature relating to keyboard temperaments from 1680 to 1750; and discusses Bach's pedagogical intent when composing the Well-tempered Clavier. Ledbetter's commentaries on individual preludes and fugues equip readers with the concepts necessary to make their own assessment and include information about the sources when details of notation, ornaments, and fingerings have a bearing on performance.
