William L. Hoffman wrote (July 4, 2020):
[To Zachary Uram] Two new books on Anna Magdalena provide a wealth of information and different perspectives: David Yearsley's Sex, Death, and Minuets: Anna Magdalena Bach and Her Musical Notebooks and Edward Spree's Die verwitwete Frau Capellmeisterin Bach (Kamprad, E. Reinhold Verlag, 2019). See the review I did almost a year ago: http://www.bach-cantatas.com/Books/B0220.htm, especially Bach Network articles: Yo Tomita, "Anna Magdalena as Bach's Copyist" ( http://www.bachnetwork.co.uk/ub2/tomita.pdf); Yael Sela, "Anna Magdalena Bach’s Büchlein (1725) as a Domestic Music Miscellany" ( https://www.bachnetwork.co.uk/ub5/sela.pdf), and Ruth Tatlow's "A Missed Opportunity: Reflections on Written by Mrs Bach" ( http://bachnetwork.co.uk/ub10/ub10-tatlow-wbmb.pdf). |
