The Organ Music of J. S. Bach

Taking account of Bach scholarship of the past twenty-five years, the first two volumes of Peter Williams´s classic study of Bach´s organ works are fully revised. This work is a piece-by-piece commentary on this ever-popular repertoire, demonstrating the music´s unique qualities and how we might hear and play it today. The book follows the order of the Bach catalog (BWV): beginning with the sonatas, followed by the "free works" and the chorales, and ending with the doubtful works, including the "newly discovered chorales" of 1985.
