Sommario/riassunto |
|
Every lover of music finds themselves, at privileged moments, in ecstasy - certain that what they are hearing has captured, somehow, an incontrovertible truth. Bach's Architecture of Gratitude explores this profound aesthetic experience in a case study of J.S. Bach's Mass in B Minor and its capacity to inspire gratitude. |
