The Bach Family
When this volume was originally published in 1954 it was the first complete history of the Bach family from the 16th Century miller Veit to Wilhelm Friedrich Ernst (1759-1845), Johann Sebastian’s grandson.

Apart from describing the fascinating phenomenon of this musical family, the author gives a history of musical thought in the last 300 years.
