Rating: - EXCELLENT BOOK - INCREDIBLE WORKS AND TRANSCRIPTIONS
This motets are one of the most greates ones.Only compared to his non-popularity.Its obvius that Johann Sebastian eclipsate any work of any composer, but this works have nothing to be ashame of. This only is refered to the music.About this book, I only can say that there could be no better transcriptions of a work.
