More than any other part of Bach's output, his keyboard works
conveyed the essence of his inimitable art to generations of
admirers. The varied responses to this repertory - in scholarly and
popular writing, public lectures, musical composition and
transcription, performances and editions - ensured its place in the
canon and broadened its creator's appeal. The early reception of
Bach's keyboard music also continues to affect how we understand
and value it, though we rarely recognize that historical
continuity. Here, Matthew Dirst investigates how Bach's music
intersects with cultural, social and music history, focusing on a
repertory which is often overshadowed in scholarly and popular
literature on Bach reception. Organized around the most productive
ideas generated by Bach's keyboard works from his own day to the
middle of the nineteenth century, this study shows how Bach's
remarkable and long-lasting legacy took shape amid critical changes
in European musical thought and practice.
