J.S. Bach. A Documentary Portrait
Description
This first-class documentary biography of Bach shows us the places and the documents of his life: the houses in which he lived, the organs on which he played, the report cards he got in school, and the letters he wrote to excuse his innovations and flatter his employers. The music, superbly performed, is presented chronologically and in the context of Bach's life.
