Pressestimmen
Excellent and thought-provoking... (The) translators (of Siegele's important essay) have done English readers a great service... The volume goes some way to combating romanticised notions of Bach. THE CONSORT A marvellous account of the Leipzig ... in which Bach lived and worked... If you enjoy the Coffee Cantata, read the chapter by Katherine Goodman on coffee and women poets... This (book) fascinated me.--Clifford Bartlett, Early Music Review Written in an engaging style, Bach's Changing World is an informative and satisfying read that makes a substantial contribution to our understanding of the era in which Bach lived and worked, whilst also simultaneously providing new or alternative insights into the life and occasionally the works of the man himself. --Elise Crean, Queen's University, Belfast, Bach Bibliography website Cogently introduced... An important addition to musical and theological history... Makes a significant contribution to the literature on German history and the 18th century. -- CHOICE (V)isually elegant, with a generous selection of illustrations of Leipzig life (some of them rarely used in modern publications). By viewing Bach within his intellectual context, Baron and her contribuors open an important and stimulating path. EARLY MUSIC, 2007, Stephen Rose Carol Baron and her colleagues have done Bach studies a marvelous service. This volume should prove to be not only a signal contribution to the too-small bibliography on Bach's cultural contexts but also a ready resource for its desired growth. General readers and music lovers, too, will find this accessible book highly worthwhile. --Michael Marissen, Professor of Music, Swarthmore College, and author of The Social and Religious Designs of Bach's Brandenburg Concertos and co-author of An Introduction to Bach Studies
Kurzbeschreibung
The Leipzig middle-class evolved with the cooperation and gratitude of an extravagant, greedy, and disinterested absolutist ruler. "Bach's Changing World" documents how this community and other German communities responded to a variety of religious, social, and political demands that emerged during the years of the composer's lifetime. An accepted, admired, and trusted member of this community, as evidenced by the commissions he received for secular celebrations from royalty and members of the middle-class alike - in addition to functioning as church composer - Bach shared its values. Contributors include: Carol K. Baron, Susan H. Gillespie, Katherine Goodman, Joyce L. Irwin, Tanya Kevorkian, Ulrich Siegele, John Van Cleve, and Ruben Weltsch. Carol K. Baron is Fellow for Life in the Department of Music at Stony Brook University, where she was co-founder and administrator of the Bach Aria Festival and Institute.

A gem of a book
21. Februar 2008
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
One need not be a musicologist or a historian to enjoy and appreciate this excellent volume. Carol Baron has brought together essays that stretch the knowledge of the reader so that we can listen to the music of Bach with a fuller appreciation. Bach's music is timeless but the world has changed greatly and it's wonderful to get a full picture of his 18th Century. I highly recommend this book to all lovers of Baroque music.

History that's a pleasure to read. Gives one a deep sense of why history needs to be rewritten to be relevant in the here and now. New information is combined with topical perspectives.
