Produktbeschreibung

This collection of essays explores the literary and aesthetic contexts of C. P. E. Bachs later work, focussing on his activity in Hamburg from 1767 until his death in 1788. It includes essays on Bachs position on contemporary concepts of sensibility, his sacred music and views on religion, and on the contemporary and posthumous reception of his music. This volume, the first English-language collection of essays devoted to C. P. E. Bach since 1988, seeks to re-establish the centrality of Bachs music in late 18th-century German culture.
