Description

Explore the profound connection between music and rhetoric in The Pathetick Musician. Written by Bruce Haynes and Geoffrey Burgess, this work examines the role of eloquent expression in Baroque music. By looking closely at the cantatas of J.S. Bach, the authors challenge standard ideas about historical authenticity in musical performance. This book provides a new way to think about early music. It offers directions to bring more life and energy to modern performances. Readers will learn how music connects to other art forms, including oratory, dance, gesture, poetry, painting, and sculpture. It is a deep look into how musicians move an audience through the power of expression.
