  • Bach and Money: Sources of Salary and Supplemental Income in Leipzig from 1723 to 1750*
    Understanding Bach, 12, 111–125 © Bach Network UK 2017 Young Scholars’ Forum Bach and Money: Sources of Salary and Supplemental Income in Leipzig * from 1723 to 1750 NOELLE HEBER It was his post as Music Director and Cantor at the Thomasschule that primarily marked Johann Sebastian Bach’s twenty-seven years in Leipzig. The tension around the unstable income of this occupation drove Bach to write his famous letter to Georg Erdmann in 1730, in which he expressed a desire to seek employment elsewhere.1 The difference between his base salary of 100 Thaler and his estimated total income of 700 Thaler was derived from legacies and foundations, funerals, weddings, and instrumental maintenance in the churches, although many payment amounts fluctuated, depending on certain factors such as the number of funerals that occurred each year. Despite his ongoing frustration at this financial instability, it seems that Bach never attempted to leave Leipzig. There are many speculations concerning his motivation to stay, but one could also ask if there was a financial draw to settling in Leipzig, considering his active pursuit of independent work, which included organ inspections, guest performances, private music lessons, publication of his compositions, instrumental rentals and sales, and, from 1729 to 1741, direction of the collegium musicum. This article provides a new and detailed survey of these sources of revenue, beginning with the supplemental income that augmented his salary and continuing with his freelance work. This exploration will further show that Leipzig seems to have been a strategic location for Bach to pursue and expand his independent work.

Christian Friedrich Henrici (Picander) wrote the libretto 3 with its allegorical allusions to the professor’s philosophical ideas. The libretto has attracted its fair share of scholarly criticism, and indeed derision. 4 However, the circumstances of its 1 This article is part of Szymon Paczkowski’s research project, ‘The Polish Style in German Music of the Eighteenth Century: Functions and Meaning on the Example of the Work of Johann Sebastian Bach (2004–2007)’, sponsored by the State Committee for Scientific Research of the Republic of Poland.

  • Payment Receipts in the Hand of Johann Sebastian Bach, 1746 to 1748 (With a Fragment for the Year 1749 in the Hand of His Son)
    The Nathan Bequest: Payment Receipts in the Hand of Johann Sebastian Bach, 1746 to 1748 (With a Fragment for the Year 1749 in the Hand of His Son) Robert L. Marshall Among Johann Sebastian Bach's duties as Thomas Cantor in Leipzig was the obligation to lead the choirboys of the Thomasschule in annual renditions of motets or chorales offered in memory of benefactors of the school. In some twenty instances the terms of the bequest governing these performances entailed an honorarium for the cantor, who dutifully prepared and signed a receipt confirming its payment.1 The most copiously documented of these obligations was the so-called Nathan Bequest (Nathanisches Legat). Sabine Nathan, evidently the wealthy widow of a Leipzig master cabinetmaker, died in 1612. Her last will and testament provided that each year, on or about Sabina's Day (i.e., October 26), funeral motets were to be performed before and after the weekly sermon in the appropriate church: either St. Thomas or St. Nikolai. For this purpose the widow earmarked the sum of 1000 gulden, from whose annual interest five gulden were to be shared by the cantor (two gulden) and the participating choirboys (three gulden). The bequest was to be administered by the Leipzig cabinetmakers' guild.2 Between 1686 and 1821 receipts for these payments were entered into a leather- backed, bound receipt book belonging to the guild. Since Bach assumed the post of Thomas Cantor in May 1723 and retained it until his death in July 1750, we may presume that (whenever possible) he personally drafted and signed all the receipts for the Nathan bequest falling within that twenty-seven-year period.

  • The Organ Music of J. S. BACH, Second Edition Peter Williams Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 0521814162 - The Organ Music of J. S. BACH, Second Edition Peter Williams Frontmatter More information The Organ Music of J. S. Bach Second edition This is a completely revised edition of volumes I and II of The Organ Music of J. S. Bach (1980), a bestselling title, which has subsequently become a classic text. This new edition takes account of the Bach scholarship of the last twenty-five years. Peter Williams’s piece-by-piece commentary puts the musical sources of the organ works in context, describing the form and content of each work and relating them to other music, German and non-German. He summarises the questions about the history, authenticity, chronology, function and performance of each piece, and points out important details of style and musical quality. The study follows the order of the Bach catalogue (BWV), beginning with the sonatas, then the ‘free works’, followed by chorales and ending with the doubtful works, including the ‘newly discovered chorales’ of 1985. Peter Williams is an internationally renowned Bach scholar and performer. He was Professor of Performance Practice and the first Director of the Russell Collection of Harpsichords at the University of Edinburgh, Arts and Sciences Distinguished Professor at Duke University, NC, and until recently John Bird Professor at the University of Wales, Cardiff. He has written numerous books on the organ, organ history and organ repertoire. The first edition of The Organ Music of J. S. Bach was published in 1980(vols. I and II) and 1984 (vol.

  • Bach, Reiche, and the Leipzig Collegia Musica
    SMITHERS BACH, REICHE AND THE LEIPZIG COLLEGIA MUSICA Don L. Smithers, D. Phil. (Oxon.) To the memory of Arthur Mendel: Teacher, Colleague, Friend. Kannst du nicht allen gefallen durch deine That und deine Kunshverk, Mach' es wenigen recht, vielen gefallen ist schlimm. Johann Christoph Friedrich Schiller hat are the music-historical relationships between the composer, the per- former and the venues of their operations? To what extent has the work of composers depended upon individual performers and/or performing en- wsembles and the places with which they were associated? In the writing of music history how much attention should be paid to particular places and performers as opposed to specific "schools" of composition and individual composers? Most music history books are strangely silent about these matters. The intertwined, indeed, inseparable historical relationships between places,performers and composers are frequently slighted in favor of the usual biographical sketches of composers, tabulations of their works, and sometimes less than historical, if relevant, discussions of musical forms, harmony and so-called styles. Music historiography, like historical writing in general, should depend, as Collingwood suggested, on the "re-enactment of past experiences in the mind of the present thinker," experiences that are "objective" or known to the historian "only because they are also subjective, or activities of his own."' Musical history is not something apart from history itself, from the historical knowledge of a given time, place and society responsible for musical works and their performance. Which brings us to the subject of the present essay. To better understand the music of a composer like Bach, his approach to orchestration and employment of specific instruments, it is useful to have a better perception of the circumstances of his musical performances and the careers of those to whom wereentrusted the onerous taskofreproducing his ideas.

  • Introduction
    Introduction The performance of the St John Passion at St Nikolai Leipzig in Lent 1724 is the first surviving example of Bach’s new Passion genre, making the St John Passion and its longer successor, the St Matthew Passion, milestones for later composers of Passions.1 In spite of the significance of Bach’s St John Passion as the principal textual model and musical inspiration for numerous later Passion compositions, there is currently no comprehensive single work in English that examines both the development of the new genre and provides a sustained analysis of the words and the music of Bach’s St John Passion. This volume documents the genesis of Bach’s Passion genre and provides a thorough interpretation of the libretto and music of his first surviving Passion. The first part of this volume examines the development of Bach’s StJohnPassion as a principally Lutheran art form by considering the composer’s own thorough Lutheran upbringing and his self-understanding as a Lutheran church musi- cian, while the second part presents a theological and musical commentary of the work in order to show how Bach communicated and anchored the Chris- tian Passion narrative in the devotional story of his community through his music.2 Those familiar with the life and education of Bach, the development of the Lutheran Passion tradition in general and Bach’s work in particular, may wish to move directly to the second part of the volume, and the close reading and musico-theological analysis of Bach’s St John Passion. 1 Drawing on Bach’s necrologue in: Werner Neumann and Hans Joachim Schulze, eds., Bach- Dokumente, 3 vols (Kassel: Bärenreiter, 1963–1972) [cited as BD], 3, no.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-19901-8 - Bach's Feet: The Organ Pedals in European Culture David Yearsley Frontmatter More information BACH’ S FEET The organist seated at the King of Instruments with thousands of pipes rising all around, hands busy at the manuals and feet patrolling the pedalboard, is a symbol of self-sufficiency yielding musical possi- bilities beyond all other modes of solo performance. In this book, David Yearsley presents a new interpretation of the significance of the oldest and richest of European instruments by investigating the German origins of the uniquely independent use of the feet in organ-playing. Delving into a range of musical, literary, and visual sources, Bach’s Feet pursues the wide-ranging cultural importance of this physically demanding art, from the blind German organists of the fifteenth century, through the central contribution of Bach’s music and legacy, to the newly pedaling organists of the British Empire and the sinister visions of Nazi propagandists. david yearsley is the author of Bach and the Meanings of Counterpoint (Cambridge University Press, 2002) as well as numerous essays on European musical culture in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Active as a performer on organ and other keyboard instru- ments, his recordings are available on the Loft and Musica Omnia labels. Mr. Yearsley has been an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Humboldt University in Berlin, a Wenner Gren Foundation Fellow at the University of Gothenburg, and an American Council of Learned Societies Fellow.

ON LINKING BACH'S F-MAJOR SINFONIA AND HIS HUNT CANTATA MICHAEL MARISSEN In contrasting the apparently old-fashioned style of the opening Allegro from the First Brandenburg Concerto with the more "modern" style of its third movement some Bach scholars have been led to believe that the Concerto was composed over a considerable period of time, with the first movement predating Bach's Weimar encounter with Vivaldi's L'estro armonico concertos, and with the third movement having been written considerably later.1 Also the unusual scoring of the work (including horns) has caused some Bach specialists to reason that the concerto would have been performable only with an expansion of Bach's typical orchestra (since none of his groups included members specifically listed as horn players). The opinion that the two (or more?) versions of the concerto must

    No. 5 Spring 2006 BACH NOTES THE NEWSLETTER OF THE AMERICAN BACH SOCIETY BACH AND THE “THEATRALISCHER STIL”1 HANS JOACHIM MARX Bach research, as far as I have seen, has said practically nothing about Bach’s relationship to the opera of his day. In my view, this restraint stems from the fact that until now little doubt has been raised concerning the “Kirchenstil” of the sacred cantatas and oratorios, which have stood at the forefront of the efforts surrounding the formulation of a philologically safeguarded picture of Bach. But then the questions arises, what is to be understood by the term “Kirchenstil,” and how does “Kirchenstil” stand in relation to the “theatralischer Stil,” which, since Giovanni Battista Doni, had become the most important of the Baroque stylistic terms. Philipp Spitta has already pursued this dramatic sections of Bach’s early canta- question in his monumental Bach biog- tas, maintaining that solo song must not IN THIS ISSUE raphy, and if Spitta had not had an aver- express individual feelings, but rather sion to opera in general, which inevitably common feelings.
