The international convention report focuses on Bach reception at the time of Mendelssohn and Schumann in the light of institutional and performance-practical continuities and upheavals. The broadly held view of the closure of an era between the 18th and 19th centuries proves to be no longer tenable. In its place emerges a new understanding of the vigor and durability of Baroque ensemble traditions and performance styles, which continued to thrive well into the 19th century and even into the early 20th century. The articles in this volume deal with this topic from the perspective sometimes for the very first time of the history of instruments, sources, institutions, society and composition technique.
