Where it came from
Published in 2012 by Carus-Verlag, this biographical volume by Peter Wollny offers a scholarly exploration of Wilhelm Friedemann Bach, the eldest son of Johann Sebastian Bach. The book was produced as part of a distinguished series dedicated to composers, aiming to provide a definitive, modern account of a musician whose life was long overshadowed by the myth of his professional decline and personal instability.
Peter Wollny, a renowned musicologist and expert on the Bach family, utilized primary source research to move beyond the anecdotal narratives that colored earlier biographies. His design and editorial approach focuses on placing Wilhelm Friedemann within the transition from the Baroque to the Classical era, providing an objective analysis of his creative output and the complexities of his career in Dresden and Halle. The work is regarded by the academic community as a foundational text for understanding the nuances of the Bach family legacy.
