"Meticulously edited by Robin Leaver, a veteran historian of Lutheran music, this stimulating work takes a closer look at the faith communities working alongside and around Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). . . . Fascinating, beautifully produced." --Journal of Ecclesiastical History "It is a major challenge to do justice to the topic of Bach and Mozart and nearly impossible to fulfill the expectations of a book so entitled. Nevertheless, each of the six conference papers that make up the present volume (originally presented at the joint meeting of the American Bach and Mozart Societies at Stanford in 2019) add fresh and illuminating facets to the big picture of the two composers and their interrelationship."--Christoph Wolff, Bach's Musical Universe: The Composer and His Work
