TITLE: | Dresdner Wettspiel. |
SERIES: | [ce]BachABC (2007), pp. 31-32. |
PUBL. DATA: | [Retells the story of the harpsichord playing competition between Bach and the French composer-performer Louis Marchand at the Dresden court of King August II in September 1717, from which Marchand ignominiously fled. While the story is most likely untrue, it provides valuable insight into the reception of Bach in the later 18th and 19th c., when the story spread.] |
