The Keyboard in Baroque Europe (Musical Performance and Reception)
Editorial Reviews
Review
'The very experienced writers know how to relate particular issues to broader contexts, so there is much for the enthusiast, and several of the articles will henceforth be standards on my reading lists.' The British Clavichord Society
'May this collection encourage by example and stimulate further generations of Leonhardt's under-gardeners to labour for their art.' The Consort
Book Description
Twelve of today's most distinguished scholar-performers present essays on Baroque keyboard music. Topics include the place of the keyboard in concerted music, comparative teaching methods, studies of the repertoire of J.S. Bach and his sons, and writing in the later eighteenth century (including Mozart) and on matters of repertoire and performance practice. The volume concludes with a new arrangement for keyboard of Bach's D minor Violin Partita, published here for the first time.
