Also featured are pieces to play by Louis & Francois Couperin, J. S. Bach and Georg Bohm. An appendix of recommended starting pieces follows. If you take the trouble to work with this book at a harpsichord, (especially if you use the recordings) your touch and knowledge of Baroque performance will improve."--Publisher's description.
