My guest today is a name many who revere Bach will know, none other than Professor Peter Wollny. Professor Wollny is a German musicologist, a Bach scholar who has contributed to and served the Bach Archive Leipzig since 1993, and as its director from 2014. Wollny has contributed to the Neue Bach-Ausgabe, and has been an editor of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach: The Complete Works. He has been professor at the University of Leipzig, and teaches internationally. He received an honorary doctorate from the University of Uppsala and is considered one of the foremost experts of J.S Bach’s music worldwide.
