5.0 out of 5 stars
Finally someone who fully understands counterpoint!,
By
This review is from: Bach and the Meanings of Counterpoint (New Perspectives in Music History and Criticism) (Hardcover)
Truly an excellent study of the meaning behind Bach's use of counterpoint in his treatises on Harmony, Counterpoint, and Fugue. David Yarsley's insightful understanding of tonal counterpoint and how it functions, in conjunction with his great historical perspective, allows him to draw some very interesting and useful conclusions on Bach's works. For example his explanation of Crab Cannon is about as good as it gets and clearly shows his mastery of the material at hand. This book is a must read for any serious composer or lover of Bach.
