About this ebook
Originally published in 1934, this is an exhaustive examination of one of Bach's greatest works, and is highly recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in this great composer. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
