"It only occurred to me very recently that if I want to get closer to the music I love, why not get hold of a copy of the score? So I did, and it has been very helpful. It fixes ones attention to the music, and elevates ones listening comprehension dramatically. My first impulse was to read a useful book about Bach and listen to the music. Since I'm a hedonist, looking to maximize my pleasure at all costs, and moreover I enjoy listening to music as well as reading, it seemed to me a fine idea to put two pleasurable activities together and increase my enjoyment, that is, read a book and listen to music at the same time. Of course, I soon discovered it isn't really possible to listen well and read well at the same time. One or the other must suffer. The advantage of a score is that you can listen and read at the same time, read, that is, the music on the page while listening to a recorded performance."
"The praeludiums (sp?) are a lot of fun if you play them slowly and not to Bach's time! He really works out the fourth finger in one and five. That is as far as I am in the book right now...."
