In acht colleges van een uur behandelt Leo Samama de ontwikkelingen van de Nederlandse klassieke muziek vanaf het einde van de Renaissance tot het begin van onze eeuw. Daarbij komen ook de maatschappelijke aspecten aan de orde die in ons land tot zo'n kenmerkend eigen muziekleven hebben geleid, met weinig pracht en praal, maar niet minder allure.

Als componist was Bach een briljant theoreticus, voor wie de regels van het quadrivium altijd centraal hebben gestaan en voor wie muziek een vorm van wiskunde was. Toch had zijn belijdenis als Lutheraan evenzeer grote weerslag op zijn werk.
