Bach","description":"\u003cp\u003eStylized dance music and music based on dance rhythms pervade Bach's compositions. Although the music of this very special genre has long been a part of every serious musician's repertoire, little has been written about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original edition of this addressed works that bore the names of dances-a considerable corpus.  In this expanded version of their practical and insightful study, Meredith Little and Natalie Jenne apply the same principals to the study of a great number of Bach's works that use identifiable dance rhythms but do not bear dance-specific titles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart I describes French dance practices in the cities and courts most familiar to Bach. The terminology and analytical tools necessary for discussing dance music of Bach's time are laid out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart II presents the dance forms that Bach used, annotating all of his named dances. Little and Jenne draw on choreographies, harmony, theorists' writings, and the music of many seventeenth- and eighteenth-century\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecomposers in order to arrive at a model for each dance type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Appendix A all of Bach's named dances are listed in convenient tabular form; included are the BWV number for each piece, the date of composition, the larger work in which it appears, the instrumentation, and the meter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix B supplies the same data for pieces recognizable as dance types but not named as such.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore than ever, this book will stimulate both the musical scholar and the performer with a new perspective at the rhythmic workings of Bach's remarkable repertoire of dance-based music.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Indiana University Press (IPS)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52635701608815,"sku":"9780253214645","price":254.35,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/0253214645.jpg?v=1770215271","url":"https:\/\/internacional.umlivro.com.br\/products\/dance-and-the-music-of-j-s-bach","provider":"UmLivro Internacional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
