You've transcribed the tile wrongly. You wrote "NACH FRANZÖSIFCHER ART", but it should've been "NACH FRANZÖSISCHER ART". In German, there used to be three s. There is the s (round s), S in capital letters, the ſ (long s), S in capital letter and the ß (sharp s or eszett), written SZ, ẞ or SZ in capital letters. The long s felt out of use but it mandantory in blackletter and certain styles of cursive. Especially in blackletter fonts it might look very similar to f. It would be nice if you could correct that.

This is long s: ſ. It looks a bit like letter f, but it is s, in fact. In the paſt, it was uſed inſtead of the ſhort s in every caſe, except at the end of the word, at the end of roots in compound words, as a capital S, or after another ſ. Bach uſed it in writing his name: Johann Sebaſtian Bach.
@Gilmaris5 жыл бұрын
There are only two S's. The ẞ is merely a combination of the long and the short (though also a combination of the long S and Z, early on, but these days it counts as a double S - even though it is still sometimes called "Eszett" - "S Z"). The rules of usage were the same all over Europe, but not rigorously applied. For example, if the S was at the end of the word, it should be the short S. But I have seen the long S used. Anywhere else in the word, an S should be long - but I have seen exceptions here as well. If you have two S's in a row, regardless of where they are in the word, the first should be long and the second short. And this is where ẞ comes from.

@MitchBoucherComposer5 жыл бұрын
Yes, it is. The first movement particularly is called an 'overture' which hails after the French method of composition. Several of Bach's other pieces are French overtures---and not just instrumental pieces (like those of the orchestral suites) or the keyboard works (the partita in F, BWV 833 or g minor, BWV 822) but he features overtures in several cantatas as well (BWv 61, 97, 194, 110, for example). You can recognize the overall French-ness by the dotted rhythms and elegant lines of thirty-second or sixteenth notes. Not to mention the middle fugal section!

No, Bach doesn’t do the French manner better than the French. When I think of the French manner I think Couperin, Rameau, D’Anglebert, Nivers, Lebegue, de Grigny, etc. etc. Bach did his Germanic “thing” with the French style, but he didn’t emulate or imitate. He is much too frenetic and cerebral to be authentically French. I think Germans who did a better job of composing in the French style are Bohm and Gottlieb Muffat.
