- Synopsis
- This is the second volume of Schweitzer's classic book about J. S. Bach. It covers Schweitzer's revolutionary (for its time) idea that Bach used a musical lexicon to relate words in the score with themes in the music for the Cantatas and most of his other music. It also presents much more detail than Vol. 1 does on the proper way to play Bach's music. The level of musical terminology is high, but the insights are profound nevertheless. It also includes the index for both volumes as well as a list of Bach's music as known at that time (1911).
