In this text, the author develops a new interpretation of J.S. Bach's The Art of Fugue, based on a profound knowledge of Baroque-era thought and intense score study. Starting with the work's celebrated BACH theme, he attempts to show that The Art of Fugue contains an assertion of the composer's deeply held faith, and that aspects of Bach's spiritual convictions permeate the entire musical fabric of the work. The author postulates that The Art of Fugue is actually a musical representation of Bach's beliefs about the God-human relationship, and argues that the Christian doctrine of "salvation by grace" is the core concept that provides the work with its expressive content in much the same way that the opening ground-theme subject acts as a basic generating source for all subsequent musical materials. Although The Art of Fugue is regarded by the musical world as one of the most significant examples of Bach's contrapuntal craft, the author convincingly argues that this work has an important spiritual dimension that goes beyond considerations of the composer's craftsmanship. He devotes this book to a lively and controversial discussion of unprovable matters; that is, to those aspects of expressive content which he believes are concealed both within and beyond the musical materials.

"Bach's Art of Fugue and Musical Offering is the first comprehensive study of two closely related masterworks of the late Baroque fugal style. The initial volume in a series of American Bach Society Guides produced in collaboration with Oxford University Press, it unpacks these famously cerebral collections as endlessly fascinating material for study and play. Intended for a general readership, this compact guide also summarizes for practitioners a considerable body of knowledge about these singular works. Bach scholar and keyboard player Matthew Dirst explains their idiosyncratic musical language in initial chapters while reviewing how both projects took shape during Bach's final decade, as he reoriented his creative energies around capstone works of various kinds. The most systematic of these, the Art of Fugue and Musical Offering reflect his lifelong fascination with learned counterpoint, as demonstrated in elaborate series of fugues and canons in both and in an unusually intricate trio sonata in the latter. Later chapters provide commentary on individual movements and groups of pieces and on the historical reception of this music, including its impact on other disciplines. Recurring themes include Bach's diligent exploration of contrapuntal types and techniques, his embrace of musical games of various sorts, and his creative assimilation of diverse musical styles"--
