�The book should be read by anyone interested in shifting the focus of attention in early eighteenth-century studies away from the more familiar areas. Together with Pritchard's admirable Caldara volume, it performs the important task of documenting the latest scholarship relating to one of the leading musical centres of the time - Habsburg court at Vienna under the Emperor Charles VI.� Music and Letters �This book splendidly achieves its aim of celebrating and affirming the value of Fux's work. For the breadth of its outlook, its wealth of useful references and its generous music examples and bibliography, it is to be highly recommended� Music and Letters
