Two new Bach books. Quote from the review at Bookforum:
...we have the advantage over Bach's original audiences of a far closer acquaintance with his musical language—and of guidance such as both these admirable books provide. Transcendence is here, in how, as time proceeds, eternity is always present—how, in that gorgeous aria from Cantata no. 115, the shadow of a fall reappears again and again; how, in the D Minor Chaconne, the keynote is forever being revisited, with whatever feelings of homecoming or hopeless inevitability; and how, in the Goldberg Variations, the opening dance is there again at the end, "as if nothing has happened" (Geck) or as if it had been present all along, beneath and upholding "a world of sound unfamiliar and unrepeatable" (Williams).
A note sounds. Then it sounds again. But everything has changed.
