Synopsis
This book is a comprehensive analysis of two revered composers from the 18th century, J. S. Bach and Edvard Grieg. The author positions them within their own musical eras and highlights how J. S. Bach's extensive musical lineage and training led him to become the epitome of organized and technical compositions. Conversely, Edvard Grieg's more humble origins are seen to influence the distinctly cheerful and more accessible quality of his work, drawing heavily on the spirited folk music native to Norway. The author goes on to examine the depth of thematic ideas and creativity in each composer's repertoire, Bach's work reflecting a more spiritual and profound quality, while Grieg's is bright and optimistic. Through detailed analysis of selected pieces from each composer, this book expertly illuminates the evolution of musical style and technique, making it an invaluable resource for students and scholars of classical music.
