- Three well-known Bach scholars explore the question of where and how one might locate the emotional potential of J. S. Bach’s music, drawing on historical methods and discourses as well as on insights from current performance practice. Under the heading of ‘affect’, the emotional qualities of Bach’s music have been a topic of sustained scholarly discussion since at least the early twentieth century. Arguably that discussion has advanced only haltingly since George Buelow’s critique of the traditional Affektenlehre back in the 1980s. Meanwhile, over the past thirty years or so historians have increasingly embraced the emotional dimension of past events as a productive new area of inquiry, alerting us not only to the fact that emotions and their expression are historically contingent, but that these affective forces played a much more vital part in shaping historical realities than has often been acknowledged. The panel members propose several new, historically grounded approaches to the question of emotion in Bach’s music, building on some of the frameworks developed in recent emotions history. Conversely, they consider what the study of music (and Bach’s music in particular) might fruitfully contribute to the writing of emotional histories.

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this inaugural issue of Discussing Bach panel members propose several new, historically grounded approaches to the question of emotion in Bach’s music, building on some of the frameworks developed in recent emotions history. Conversely, they consider what the study of music (and Bach’s music in particular) might fruitfully contribute to the writing of emotional histories. Each participant presents a short position statement on an aspect of the topic which is then briefly discussed by the others. Bettina Varwig begins by reflecting on the place of music within the history of emotions and the ways in which new approaches to Bach’s music can reshape certain key narratives about early modern affect. Ruth Tatlow then explores the role that musical proportions were understood to play in generating emotional response, illustrating her points from the history of resonating numbers and resonating form. Finally, John Butt considers the emotional content in Bach’s music in terms of concepts of embodiment, specifically the ways in which dance allusions are nested in the music on an astonishing variety of levels.

Bach and the Riddle of the Number Alphabet
- 1991
-
Bok (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- In 1947 the musicologist and theologian Friedrich Smend (1893-1980) published the first of four studies theorizing that Bach regularly used the natural-order number alphabet (A=1 to Z=24) in order to employ a type of number-word symbolism in his works. Tatlow investigates the plausibility of Smend's claims. Her new evidence fundamentally challeges Smend's conclusions and the book sounds a note of caution to all who continue to use his number alphabet theory.
