A discussion between Thurston Dart , Arnold Goldsbrough , Basil Lam , and Fritz Rothschild
In his book The Lost Tradition in Music Fritz Rothschild suggests that Bach and his contemporar.es indicated the tempo of their music by their choice of time signature and note content. This and other tlheories in the book have been widely discussed and criticised. If generally accepted they might lead to a complete change in the performance of Bach's music.
