Bach Transformed

Arrangements of Bach's music have been happening essentially
since his music was “rediscovered” by Mendelssohn in the 19th
century. But Mozart and Beethoven arranged Bach's music too, and
Bach himself would recycle works for different groupings of
instruments. Today, I'm going to take a look at some of those
arrangements, and what kind of insights we can gain into Bach's
music, the styles of the times in which these arrangements were
done, and even(!) whether we might prefer these new flavors. Join
