These two volumes contain the English translations of the vocal works of Johann Sebastian Bach. Professor, musician, and author Z. Philip Ambrose preserves the meter and original noun/verb placement in his translations so that listeners and interpreters will see Bach's own "translation" of the texts into music. J.S. Bach: The Vocal Texts in English Translation with Commentary is a good guide to the poetics of Bach's music and will give to performing musicians a clearer understanding of Bach's wonderful vocal works.
