Although we have heard of the music of J.S. Bach in countless
performances and recordings, the composer himself still comes
across only as an enigmatic figure in a single familiar portrait.
Written to mark the 250th anniversary of Bach's death, author and
Bach scholar, Christoph Wolff presents a picture that brings to
life this towering figure of the Baroque era. This biography
portrays Bach as the living, breathing, and sometimes imperfect
human being that he was, while bringing to bear all the advances of
the last half-century of Bach scholarship. Wolff demonstrates the
intimate connection between the composer's life and his music,
showing how Bach's superb inventiveness pervaded his career as a
musician, composer, performer, scholar, and teacher. And
throughout, we see Bach in the broader context of his time: its
institutions, traditions, and influences.
