Book Reviews of The Art of the Fugue & A Musical Offering (Dover Chamber Music Scores)
Book Review: Great book, if you have someone to hold it open.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a jewel; a paperback (with Dover's usual great binding quality) that contains both the Art of Fugue and the Musical Offering.The Art of Fugue was originally written in open score, to emphasize that the performance instrument was not specified. This edition gives the open score with a two-stave (piano-type) reduction below.
Of course, with a solid binding like that, it's not going to stay open on your piano.
If you want to play / doodle the great Contrapunctus 1 from TAOF (like I did), and if you've got the hairclips to keep the pages down (like I wish I did), this book is for you! Gofer it. Arch
