Formerly he was Head of Research in Division II of the Bach-Archiv Leipzig, where he oversaw the development of Bach Digital. He has a special focus on protestant church music of the second half of the eighteenth century.

Christoph Wolff has been a member of the Board of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach: The Complete Works since its inception in 1998–99. He was involved in the 1999 recovery of the lost archives of the Berlin Singakademie, which included many unique copies of C.P.E. Bach’s Hamburg Passions and cantatas; this discovery contributed greatly to the source material, and thus the overall output, for the CPEB:CW edition. Christoph has also served as a contributing editor for two volumes of chamber music (II/2.1–2.2), a volume of vocal music (Miscellaneous Songs, VI/3), and the “Polyhymnia Portfolio” (VIII/2). He is a noted J.S. Bach scholar; his biography, Johann Sebastian Bach: The Learned Musician (2000; rev. 2013), was a finalist for the 2001 Pulitzer Prize in Biography.

He was director of the Bach-Archiv Leipzig from 2001–13, and is University Professor of Music Emeritus at Harvard University. Previously at Harvard he served as Chair of the Music Department (1980–88, 90–91), Acting Director of the University Library (1991–92), and Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (1992–2000).

Christopher Hogwood (1941–2014), one of the pioneers in historically informed performance, was chair of the Editorial Board of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach: The Complete Works, from its inception in 1999 to his untimely death in September 2014. In no way a mere figurehead, Chris actively participated in the organization of the edition and its editorial policies, and he edited the “Kenner und Liebhaber” Collections (volumes I/4.1–4.2, published in 2009). He contributed a lifetime of expertise in interpreting sources and performance practices of eighteenth-century music, both as a scholar and practical musician and conductor. Above all, he was an eloquent spokesman for the edition, and we are grateful for his service, collegiality, and friendship.
