About this book

Launched in 1995, Bach Perspectives has become the premier English-language serial book series dedicated to cutting-edge Bach scholarship. The University of Illinois Press now offers the first four volumes in open access editions available for free to all interested readers.

The fourth volume of Bach Perspectives analyzes J. S. Bach's orchestral works, especially his concertos, and the interpretation and performance of his music in general. The diverse contributors come from the fields of performance, organology, music theory, and music history, and their expertise across multiple areas provides an interdisciplinary perspective to their chapters.

Contributors: Gregory G. Butler, John Butt, John Koster, Alfred Mann, Mary Oleskiewicz, William Renwick, David Schulenberg, Jeanne Swack, and Paul Walker
