Reviews

This is a book that was just aching to be written. Originally in German, at last we have the long-awaited English edition of it that sheds considerable light on a great institution which, by its existence, had been a catalyst for and source of musical creativity that had acquired a significant standing throughout Germany long before Bach arrived on the scene in 1723. LONDON BACH SOCIETY Engaging...Maul's study offers an outstanding musical, social and political history of this intriguing site of German music-making. BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE
