Bach: A Pictorial Biography
The all-new Bach: A Pictorial Biography/Eine Bildbiografie was published in Germany in 2021, written by renowned Bach scholar and the Artistic Director of Bachfest Leipzig, Prof. Dr. Michael Maul. This biography consists of more than 140 photographs from the collections of major libraries and museums in Germany, with interesting facts about Bach's life arranged by year in the form of a picture and a story, so that readers can feel like they are in Germany, exploring the simple and great musical life of the father of Western music, Johann Sebastian Bach.
The book is translated by conductor Dr. David Chin, the Artistic Director of Bachfest Malaysia, and will be published this year (2022) in English and Chinese. We hope that this book will break through the language barrier and promote Bach's musical story to the Chinese community worldwide, in order to fulfill our mission of "Making quality music accessible and enriching cultural life". By purchasing this book, you will not only get to learn more about the life and works of this music legend, but also continue to join Bachfest Malaysia in promoting quality music and music education, creating a richer and more diverse-cultural life for you and me. |
