In this concise and accessible volume, a noted keyboard artist and
Bach specialist takes a fresh look at the performance of J. S.
Bach's keyboard music. Addressing the nonspecialist player, Richard
Troeger presents a wide range of historical information and
discusses its musical applications. The author shares accounts of
the musical styles Bach employed and the instruments he knew. In
direct and pragmatic terms, he clarifies the importance of
notational and style details as guides to the composer's
intentions, particularly emphasizing changes in notational norms
between Bach's time and the present. Troeger offers core
information on dynamics, articulation, tempo, rhythm, ornamentation
and accompaniment. He considers controversial issues as well,
establishing the importance of the clavichord in Bach's milieu and
examining the link between baroque music and rhetoric - a dramatic
relationship that can bring great vitality to performance.
