Analyzing Bach Cantatas
Bach's cantatas are among the highest achievements of Western musical art, yet studies of the individual cantatas that are both illuminating and detailed are few. In this book, noted Bach expert Eric Chafe combines theological, historical, analytical, and interpretive approaches to the cantatas to offer readers and listeners alike the richest possible experience of these works. A respected theorist of seventeenth-century music, Chafe is sensitive to the composer's intentions and to the enduring and universal qualities of the music itself. Concentrating on a small number of representative cantatas, mostly from the Leipzig cycles of 1723-24 and 1724-25, and in particular on Cantata 77, Chafe s...
Rethinking Bach
This book a offers a multitude of provocative new perspectives on one of the most iconic composers in the Western classical tradition. Its collective rethinking of some of our most cherished narratives and deeply held beliefs about Johann Sebastian Bach will allow readers to see the man in a new light and to hear his music with new ears.
Modern Computer Algebra
Computer algebra systems are now ubiquitous in all areas of science and engineering. This highly successful textbook, widely regarded as the 'bible of computer algebra', gives a thorough introduction to the algorithmic basis of the mathematical engine in computer algebra systems. Designed to accompany one- or two-semester courses for advanced undergraduate or graduate students in computer science or mathematics, its comprehensiveness and reliability has also made it an essential reference for professionals in the area. Special features include: detailed study of algorithms including time analysis; implementation reports on several topics; complete proofs of the mathematical underpinnings; and a wide variety of applications (among others, in chemistry, coding theory, cryptography, computational logic, and the design of calendars and musical scales). A great deal of historical information and illustration enlivens the text. In this third edition, errors have been corrected and much of the Fast Euclidean Algorithm chapter has been renovated.
Number Theory
This book contains proceedings presented at the fourth Canadian Number Theory Association conference held at Dalhousie University in July 1994. The invited speakers focused on analytic, algebraic, and computational number theory. The contributed talks represented a wide variety of areas in number theory.
Tears into Wine
In 1714, the 29 year-old Johann Sebastian Bach was promoted to the position of concertmaster at the ducal court of Weimar. This post required him for the first time in his already established career to produce a regular stream of church cantatas-one cantata every four weeks. Among the most significant works of this period is Ich hatte viel Bekümmernis in meinem Herzen (Cantata 21). Generally known in English as "I had much affliction," Cantata 21 draws from several psalms and the Book of Revelations and offers a depiction of the spiritual ascent of the soul from intense tribulation to joy and exaltation. Although widely performed and loved by musicians, Cantata 21 has endured much criticism...
The Coming of the Son of Man
The proposed roadmap to peace between Israel and the Arabs is stalemated. Islamic terrorism is spreading around the world. In response the American President initiates a global plan to defeat this enemy of democracy. His invasion of three Muslim nations is an aggressive attempt to force the Arabs to sign for peace with Israel. Only the Father knows when His Son will deliver His elect from the wrath to come. Christians don't know the day or the hour but we are exhorted to watch so we won't be deceived. Jesus warned, '...When you see all these things, know that it's near-at the doors.' (Mat 24:33) What things? The invasion of Jerusalem by the Antichrist is a sign Christ's coming is near. For t...
