Book Reviews of Bach's Cello Suites: Analyses and Explorations (Vol. 1 & 2) (v. 1 & 2)
Book Review: A cellest cannot live without it.
Summary: 5 Stars
Any cellist studgying the Suites needs this book. There is only so much technical anlysis you can do on your own when learning the Suites. This is a very comprehensive examiniation of the Suites, well illustrated with muscial examples and anlysis for all the movements in all the Suites. Be on your guard, you will need a strong working knowledge of music theory in order to understand most of what is discussed. And you cannot browse the book, you need to spend a lot of time (sometimes at the piano) studying the musical examples. But there is a rich, rich reward to anyone who will invest the time. I've been studying the suites on and off for 25 years. After buying this book as a gift for many of my friends, I bought it for myself, and almost instantly found new meaning in movements I thought I had well figured out. If you are studying the Suites, this book is a must have.
Summary of Bach's Cello Suites: Analyses and Explorations (Vol. 1 & 2) (v. 1 & 2)
J. S. Bach's Suites for Unaccompanied Cello are among the most cherished and frequently played works in the entire literature of music, and yet they have never been the subject of a full-length music analytical study. The musical examples herein include every note of all movements (so one needs no separate copy of the music while reading the book), and undertakes both basic analyses?harmonic reduction, functional harmonic analysis, step progression analysis, form analysis, and syntagmatic and paradigmatic melodic analysis?and specialized analyses for some of the individual movements. Allen Winold presents a comprehensive study intended not only for cellists, but also for other performers, music theorists, music educators, and informed general readers.
