  1. 1. J.S. Bach, Vol 1

    A deeply informed blend of biography, musical analysis, and moral reflection that traces the composer’s life in 18th‑century Germany and examines the spiritual and technical roots of his art; it places his works in historical context, explains the craft of counterpoint and organ composition, surveys major vocal and instrumental pieces, and argues for the enduring religious and human significance of his music while offering guidance on interpretation and performance practice.
