The Anna Magdalena Bach Book of Description In Johann Sebastian Bach wrote two keyboard suites for his wife Anna Magdalena, whom he married in These became the first entries in a book in which, over the next twenty years, were gathered together both keyboard pieces and vocal works by Johann Sebastian and his two sons Carl Philipp Emanuel and Johann Christian as well as such composers as Couperin, Boehm, Petzold and Hasse. An illuminating portrait of domestic music-making in the Bach family during the Leipzig period, this authoritative new edition of the book contains the keyboard pieces only, including the well-known Minuet in G and Prelude in C, from The Well-Tempered Clavier, Part I, and more substantial items such as C. This first-class edition, providing an important and attractive introduction to the Baroque style, also contains invaluable advice on appropriate tempo, phrasing, articulation and ornamentation in accordance with contemporary performance practice.

According to musicologists, Anna Magdalena was somewhat overshadowed by her legendary partner. She is mainly famous for being the partner and the recipient of the Notebook by Johann Sebastian Bach. Anna was a proficient musician in Germany and continued her performances even after completing her nuptials. She was also a regular host of dinner galas at the Bach manor, where family members and friends used to experiment and perform with their art. During that time, the Bach family was the beating heart of the artistic community in Leipzig. According to J. Anna Magdalena and Johann Sebastian had enjoyed a productive and radiant partnership, music contributing as their common catalyst of interest. Unfortunately, when Bach passed away in , their children parted ways owing to disagreements. Anna Magdalena was left to depend on government handouts and charity for survival. She finally passed away in On the contrary, Anna composing them can surely be a possibility; being a fine musician herself. The version Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach followed a broadside format, had a gilt-edged binding of vellum and was laid out lavishly. It definitely looked like a gift that was created to celebrate an intimate and special occasion. The compositions follow the pre-classical and post- baroque styles consistently and also reflect a change in musical taste compared to the music of Bach himself.

  • 'Dream Job: Next Exit?'
    Understanding Bach, 9, 9–24 © Bach Network UK 2014 ‘Dream Job: Next Exit?’: A Comparative Examination of Selected Career Choices by J. S. Bach and J. F. Fasch BARBARA M. REUL Much has been written about J. S. Bach’s climb up the career ladder from church musician and Kapellmeister in Thuringia to securing the prestigious Thomaskantorat in Leipzig.1 Why was the latter position so attractive to Bach and ‘with him the highest-ranking German Kapellmeister of his generation (Telemann and Graupner)’? After all, had their application been successful ‘these directors of famous court orchestras [would have been required to] end their working relationships with professional musicians [take up employment] at a civic school for boys and [wear] “a dusty Cantor frock”’, as Michael Maul noted recently.2 There was another important German-born contemporary of J. S. Bach, who had made the town’s shortlist in July 1722—Johann Friedrich Fasch (1688–1758). Like Georg Philipp Telemann (1681–1767), civic music director of Hamburg, and Christoph Graupner (1683–1760), Kapellmeister at the court of Hessen-Darmstadt, Fasch eventually withdrew his application, in favour of continuing as the newly- appointed Kapellmeister of Anhalt-Zerbst. In contrast, Bach, who was based in nearby Anhalt-Köthen, had apparently shown no interest in this particular vacancy across the river Elbe. In this article I will assess the two composers’ positions at three points in their professional careers: in 1710, when Fasch left Leipzig and went in search of a career, while Bach settled down in Weimar; in 1722, when the position of Thomaskantor became vacant, and both Fasch and Bach were potential candidates to replace Johann Kuhnau; and in 1730, when they were forced to re-evaluate their respective long-term career choices.

One of the casualties of this change was the recital recording, in which an artist or ensemble would present an interesting arrangement of musical pieces that followed a certain theme or style—much like a live concert. Although recital recordings were of course made, and are perhaps making a comeback, most recordings featured a single composer and were sold in alphabetized bins: B for Bach; V for Vivaldi.

  • Generalbaßlehre of 1738” by Thomas Braatz © 2012
    The Problematical Origins of the “Generalbaßlehre of 1738” by Thomas Braatz © 2012 Near the end of 2011 a new volume of the NBA was released by Bärenreiter. It is called a supplement and includes notes and studies on thorough-bass, composition and counterpoint along with a section of Bach’s sketches and drafts and finally in the appendix the more recently discovered aria, BWV 1127. In addition to the well- researched and documented rules on thorough-bass found in the Anna Magdalena Bach’s notebooks, there is a presentation and critical discussion of the recently discovered (1999) counterpoint studies in the form of an exchange between Wilhelm Friedemann Bach and his father, all in autograph documents from the period 1736 to1739 when W. F. Bach was an organist in Dresden. Of great interest is the analysis and discussion of the Precepts and Principles for Playing the Thorough-Bass along with the complete text and musical examples. Below I will present the original German (Appendix 1) along with my English translation (Appendix 2) of the pertinent sections from the NBA editor’s introduction and the critical report covering this document. From this the reader will be able ascertain the spurious1 nature of its origin and claims of authenticity. The Precepts and Principles for Playing Four-Part Thorough-Bass or Accompaniment, or more commonly referred to in its short form as the “Generalbaßlehre of 1738”, has attained a false aura of authenticity since the appearance of Philipp Spitta’s monumental Bach biography in which Spitta printed the entire text of this document that he also analyzed and discussed in greater detail in a music journal in 1882.2 Spitta was the first Bach scholar to recognize the connection between this document and certain paragraphs contained in a treatise by Friedrich Erhard Niedt.

  • The Bach Family There Has Never Been a Dynasty Like It! We Have
    The Bach Family There has never been a dynasty like it! We have Johann Sebastian Bach to thank for much of the Genealogy as well. In the region of Thuringia, the name of Bach was synonymous with music, but they were also a 'family' experiencing the ups and downs of 17th & 18th century life, from happy marriages and joyful family music-making in this devoutly Lutheran community to coping with infant mortality and dysfunctional behaviour. The Bach Family encountered the lot. In this page, we visit the lives of key members of this remarkable family, a family that was humble in its intent, served the community, were appropriately deferential to their various patrons or princes, and whose music lives on through our performances today. Joh. Seb. Bach's ancestors set the tone and musical direction, but this particular family member raised the bar higher in scale and invention. Sebastian taught his own sons too, plus many of the offspring of his relatives. His eldest sons Wilhelm Friedemann and Carl Philipp Emanuel certainly held their Father in high regard, but also wanted to plough their own furrow - not easy even then. Others either held church or court positions and one travelled first to Italy and then to Georgian London in order to ply his trade - Johann Christian Bach, the youngest son. The family's ancestry goes back to the late 16th/early 17th centuries to a certain Vitus (Veit) Bach (d.1619) who left his native Hungary and came to live in Wechmar, near Gotha in Thuringia. He was a baker by trade.

  • Anna Magdalena As Bach's Copyist1
    Understanding Bach, 2, 59-76 © Bach Network UK 2007 1 Anna Magdalena as Bach’s Copyist YO TOMITA Among the wives of eighteenth-century composers, no one is perhaps more favourably and affectionately described than Bach’s second wife, Anna Magdalena (1701–1760). In the last ten years, she has been the subject of at least five romantic biographies, 2 and this is not just a recent phenomenon. In 1925 the English writer Esther Meynell captured the public imagination with a fictitious diary entitled The Little Chronicle of Anna Magdalena Bach , which was quickly translated into many languages; some of these versions are still in print. 3 In her time Anna was reckoned as an extraordinary woman, remembered primarily as a gifted singer. 4 An encyclopaedia entry in Gerber’s 1790 Lexicon pictures her, for instance, as an ‘outstanding soprano’ who sacrificed her professional career for the sake of her beloved husband: 1 This paper was originally presented at the 12th International Biennial Conference on Baroque Music in July 2006 at the University of Warsaw under the title ‘Reconstructing Bach’s conjugal conversation: Re-assessing the contribution and the musicological value of the work of Anna Magdalena Bach’. I acknowledge with gratitude the financial assistance received from the British Academy for my attending this conference. 2 Marianne Wintersteiner, ‘Willst du dein Herz mir schenken.’ Das Leben der Anna Magdalena Bach .
