J.S. Bach's Sacred Cantatas: A Cultural Christian's Companion is the first in a three-volume study of the sacred music of J.S. Bach, which continues to inspire and console millions of people worldwide. The cantatas are the products of a religious worldview that may seem remote to a twenty-first-century listener. This book navigates the reader through this unfamiliar territory. Intended primarily as a work of musical reference, it explains in clear language the context, style and structure of each cantata - and explores how this extraordinary music can help teach us how to live and how to die.
