468,95 kr. Mozart's unfinished Requiem has long been shrouded in mystery. Mozart undertook the commission for an Austrian nobleman, little knowing that he was to write a requiem for himself. Inevitably, the secrecy surrounding the anonymous commission, the circumstances of Mozart's death, the unfinished state of the work, and its completion under the direction of Mozart's widow, Constanze, have precipitated two centuries of romantic speculation and scholarly controversy.Christoph Wolff provides a critical introduction to the Requiem in its many facets. Part I of his study focuses on the tangled genesis and completion of the work and its fascinating early reception history until Constanze's death. Wolff summarizes the current state of research on the subject, provides new perspectives on Mozart's conception of the whole work, and surveys his contributions to the movements composed posthumously by his assistant, Süssmayr. Part II provides a musical analysis of Mozart's composition, including contextual, structural, and interpretive aspects. Part III consists of an annotated collection of the principal literary documents (1791-1839) that illuminate the fascinating early history of the Requiem.The book concludes with a complete edition of the work that is at the center of Wolff's study, the authentic score of the Requiem-Mozart's fragment-supplemented by crucial excerpts from Süssmayr's 1792 Requiem completion.

417,95 kr. W¿as bleibt? Johann Sebastian Bach gestaltete und verfeinerte sein reiches musikalisches Erbe sehr bewusst: Über Jahrzehnte hinweg trug er sorgfältig angelegte Sammlungen, Originaldrucke und reinschriftliche Partituren zusammen, mit denen er Maßstäbe setzen und der Nachwelt im Gedächtnis bleiben wollte - wie eine musikalische Autobiografie. Christoph Wolff porträtiert in seinem neuen Buch anhand dieser Referenzwerke Bachs bahnbrechende künstlerische Leistungen quer durch die verschiedenen Gattungen der Instrumental- und Vokalmusik: Präludien, Fugen und Orgelchoräle, Suiten, Sonaten und Konzerte sowie Kantaten, Passionen, Oratorien und Messen. Auf dieser imponierenden Strecke trieb Bach mit seiner musikalischen Logik und ausdrucksvollen Tonsprache die Kompositionsgeschichte voran.
