Catalogue for the wandering exhibition "Johann Valentin Rathgeber (1682-1750). Life - Work - Importance".

Characterization of the period, Rathgeber in Oberelsbach, Würzburg, and the monastery of Banz, Rathgeber's public relations tour and his contacts to several sponsors, Rathgeber's music, and finally some notes on the reception history. An extensive bibliography, a comprehensive discography, and a chart with new editions of Rathgeber's works round off the catalogue.
