In Baroque works, everything had its meaning: The shapes and proportions of musical works often did not come about by chance, but were based on symbolically charged numbers – whether from geometry, mythology or architecture. Bach was a great friend of this numerical symbolism, and his colleagues Barrière, Forqueray and Couperin also often had hidden extra-musical interpretive levels.
