a| This book sums up insights gained in a lifetime of researching and performing Bach's cantatas and oratorios. The author treats primarily the area of performance practice, relating the historical evidence to present-day actuality and thus helping practicing musicians make the necesssary decisions. The book provides path into the literature (particularly that of the 18th century) so as to enable the interested reader to broaden their knowledge. It is an important contribution not only for Bach scholars but also for conductors because it succeeds in combining a thorough working knowledge of Bach works with scholarly research. The result is a book that remains readable, with direct practical value, but has a depth of insights into the cultural milieu of the music. It pursues style authenticity without falling into the trap of rigid, reductionist historicism. The book's approximately 50 figures, references to individual works of Bach, copious documentation (nearly 600 endnotes), and two indexes should make it an invaluable research tool for scholars and performers alike.
