In this major new interpretation of the music of J. S. Bach, we gain a striking picture of the composer as a unique critic of his age. By reading Bach’s music “against the grain” of contemporaries, Laurence Dreyfus explains how Bach’s approach to musical invention posed a fundamental challenge to Baroque aesthetics.
