The Art of the Fugue & A Musical Offering Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)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 theperformance instrument was not specified.This edition gives the openscore with a two-stave (piano-type) reduction below.
Of course, with asolid binding like that, it's not going to stay open on your piano.
Ifyou 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
