Description

Ralph Kirkpatrick's approach to understanding music is revealed in this book, which applies his methods to the preludes and fugues of J.S. Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier.

Through his analysis and performance insights, Kirkpatrick shares his expertise with keyboardists performing classical repertoire, offering valuable guidance on teaching and playing Western music, particularly Bach's monumental work.

This book provides a unique perspective on the musical mind of one of the outstanding performers of the 20th century, making it a useful resource for musicians seeking to deepen their understanding of music.
