Summary:  "Este é um livro sobre Bach, assente em catorze tentativas de aproximação à sua música. Uma carta de Anna Magdalena, uma cena de montagem de um filme, as conversas de técnicos de som em Nova Iorque, os pensamentos de Etty a caminho do campo de concentração, o silêncio. Intérpretes, biógrafos, romancistas, ouvintes - regra geral, nunca se encontraram e apenas a presença da música, em séculos diferentes, os aproxima, e a eles de nós. Mas qual música, qual linguagem, beleza, angústia e desespero, se ela é a pesquisa para o intérprete, pretexto para o guerreiro, última companhia para aqueles que vão morrer?" -- goodreads.com. "This is a book about the composer Johann Sebastiann Bach, based on fourteen attempts to describe his music. A letter from Anna Magdalena, a film scene, the conversation of sound technicians in New York, the thoughts of Etty on the way to the concentration camp, silence. Interpreters, biographers, novelists, listeners - as a general rule is they never met and only his music, in different centuries, brings them closer to each other and to us. But what is music, a language, beauty, anguish and despair, whether it is the search for an interpretation or the last company to those who are about to die?" -- cataloger's translation, summary, and interpretation of goodreads.com.
