| Abstract |
Twelve of today's most distinguished scholar-performers offer essays on new and intriguing aspects of baroque keyboard music. Topics include fresh evidence on music of the seventeenth century, the place of the keyboard in concerted music, comparative teaching methods, studies of the repertoire of J. S. Bach and his sons, and writing on the later eighteenth century (including Mozart) and on matters of repertoire and performance practice. The volume concludes with a new arrangement for keyboard of Bach's D minor Violin Partita, published here for the first time. |
