The Faber pocket guide to Bach - Nicholas Kenyon

The music of J.S.Bach has a unique power and attraction some 300 years
after it was written. From annual performances of the great Passions and
BBC Radio 3's hugely successful Bach Christmas, to its use in
adverts, films and popular arrangements, the imaginative strength of
Bach's music continues to draw listeners to explore its mysteries.

This
new Pocket Guide looks at all Bach's music, sacred and secular, and
explores why he speaks so profoundly to our age about both the spiritual
and the sensual in life.

Among the features of this easy-to-use book:
The Bach Top Ten
Bach: The music work by work
Performing Bach today
Bach: The life year by year
