3246 MUSC-263-01 J.S. Bach:His Life & Music 1.00 LEC Moshell,Gerald TR: 2:55PM-4:10PM TBA ART  
  Enrollment limited to 40
  While Johann Sebastian Bach is arguably the greatest composer in the history of Western music, he is also perhaps the least cosmopolitan, not having ventured more than a few hundred miles from his 1685 birthplace in Eisenach, Germany. A humble church and court musician, he composed music for specific uses and commissions, rather than merely to "express himself"—seeking to honor God and to flatter Dukes and Kings. Among the works we will examine are instrumental music for solo instruments as well as larger groups (suites, concertos, sonatas, chorale preludes) and vocal music (cantatas, motets, Passion and Mass settings), looking at these pieces both musically and in the context of the society for which they were written. We will also attend performances of Bach works presented in the Hartford area. No formal musical training or previous courses in music are prerequisite.
