The late Ralph Kirkpatrick reveals here his approach to a deeper comprehension of music, showing how his methods are applied to the preludes and fugues of the Well-Tempered Clavier of J.S. Bach. \"This book is brilliant and important.\"-Clavier \"All keyboardists performing classical repertoire can greatly benefit from Kirkpatrick's scholarship, dry wit, and stubborn dedication.\"-Keyboard \"That Mr. Kirkpatrick's extraordinarily perceptive mind knew the subject matter thoroughly is beyond dispute. . . Valuable insights into the analysis, teaching and performance of all Western music, especially Bach's monumental Well-Tempered Clavier.\"-Arthur Lawrence, The American Organist \"We are fortunate to have this book by Ralph Kirkpatrick. . . From it we gain insight into the musical mind of one of the outstanding performers of our century.\"-The Music Review \"The real matter of the book is good old-fashioned musicianship.\"-Denis Arnold, London Review of Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ralph Kirkpatrick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300038933\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300038934\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/10\/1987\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 124\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.23h x 5.41w x 0.44d","brand":"Ralph Kirkpatrick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981538263295,"sku":"9780300038934","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5e428312-228b-4075-81bc-ba51ff3f434c.jpg?v=1683256162","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/interpreting-bachs-well-tempered-clavier-ralph-kirkpatrick-9780300038934","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
