The book, Letters Of Samuel Wesley To Mr. Jacobs, Organist Of Surrey Chapel: Relating To The Introduction Into This Country Of The Works Of John Sebastian Bach (1875) is a collection of letters written by Samuel Wesley to Mr. Jacobs, the organist of Surrey Chapel. The letters relate to the introduction of the works of John Sebastian Bach into England. Samuel Wesley was a prominent musician and composer in England during the 18th century, and he played a significant role in the promotion of Bach's music in the country. In these letters, Wesley discusses his thoughts on Bach's music, his efforts to introduce it to the English public, and his interactions with other musicians who were also interested in Bach's work. This book provides a unique insight into the musical culture of England during the 18th century and sheds light on the early reception of Bach's music in the country. It is a valuable resource for music historians, scholars, and enthusiasts who are interested in the history of classical music in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
