This study is a comprehensive assessment of J.S. Bach's use of articulation marks (i.e. slurs and dots) in the large body of primary sources. Dr Butt analyses their role within the compositional processes, how they relate to the norms of articulation of the period, and how they might assist us in understanding Bach's style.
