The Social and Religious Designs of J. S. Bach's Brandenburg Concertos
Michael Marissen
Explores musical, social, and religious implications of Bach's treatment of eighteenth-century musical hierarchies. This book argues that the Brandenburg Concertos are better understood not as an arbitrary collection of unrelated examples of "pure" instrumental music, but rather as a carefully compiled and meaningfully organized set.
