Book Review
Dec. 11th, 2015 11:11 pmBach: Mass in B Minor
by John Butt
This short book packs in a lot of information about Bach's Mass in B Minor - at times it is almost too dense. I also thought there could have been a better use of musical examples. However, I really liked Butt's exploration of how and why Bach wrote this piece, and his examination of the piece through different aspects such as harmony, figuration, and ritornello form.
