Suzanne Lord, Music from the Age of Shakespeare: A Cultural History [2003], James H. Johnson, Listening in Paris: A Cultural History [1995], Joseph Horowitz, Understanding Toscanini: A Social History of American Concert Life [1994], and Walter Salmen, ed., The Social Status of the Professional Musician from the Middle Ages to the Nineteenth Century [1983]. Kassler's multiple contributions include a detailed chronology of the English Bach "awakening" (his more semantically accurate term for the "revival" described by previous writers), a searching detective story about the unknown translator of J. N. Forkel's Life of Bach, a lengthy explication of A. F. C. Kollmann's general theory of tonality (as a window into the latter's 1806 analysis of Bach's Chromatic Fantasy), a brief social history of the subscribers to the Wesley/Horn edition of the WTC, an essay on the provenance and history of the various Bach portraits and engravings in England before 1830, and finally a brief discussion of the Horn/Wesley edition of the Bach trio sonatas.
