Description

Explore a unique window into the musical history of the Prussian capital with The Correspondence of Christian Gottfried Krause. This volume brings to life the letters of a Berlin lawyer and musician, providing a primary source account of the era during the reign of Frederick the Great. Through Krause's writing, readers can observe the significant shifts in aesthetics, music theory, and music making. The text documents the transition from traditional court and church institutions toward a rising bourgeois music culture. This historical movement helped shape the urban musical structures that continue to influence German socio-cultural life today.

By examining these letters to leading literary and musical figures, you gain a direct perspective on the cultural developments that defined an era.
