The Correspondence of Christian Gottfried Krause

0 - Default Title
Description
The fascinating correspondence of the Berlin lawyer and musician Christian Gottfried Krause is an important document reflecting the trends and developments in aesthetics, music theory and music making in the Prussian capital during the reign of Frederick the Great. Krause's letters shed light on the rise of a bourgeois music culture, which during his lifetime gradually replaced the traditional musical institutions at court and in the churches, preparing the urban musical culture which to this day dominates German socio-cultural structures. An introduction and abundant annotations help to reveal a picture of a pivotal cultural moment and will be of interest to anyone working on the roots of urban musical culture and the culture of the mid-eighteenth century in general.
