A Performer`s Discourse of Method
Ralph Kirkpatrick
Out of Print
"That Mr. Kirkpatrick's extraordinarily perceptive mind knew this subject matter thoroughly is beyond dispute. . . . Valuable insights into the analysis, teaching and performance of all Western music, especially Bach's monumental Well-Tempered Clavier." —Arthur Lawrence, American Organist
"This should be read for its positive insight, from a performer who has thought profoundly about the music and how to play it." —Early Music News
"All keyboardists performing classical repertoire can greatly benefit from Kirkpatrick's scholarship, dry wit, and stubborn dedication; he wrote this book after losing his sight, but obviously not his insight." —Keyboard
"This book is brilliant and important."—Clavier
