- 1. Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)
- 7. Bach as a young man
- 10. Bach’s Signature J.S.Bach (musical) cross. Bach signed himself with a single note (using 4 different pitches) B : Left staff (treble clef ) A : Upper staff (tenor clef) C : Right staff (alto clef) H : Lower staff (treble clef)
- 21. Bach composed many pieces of music and they are often listed with the letters BWV followed by a number. Such as: BWV #212 or such. During the earlier years at Leipzig, Bach’s work demonstrated his ability of storytelling using dramatic melodies or chords to represent different events of life. Example of this style include: The Passion of St. John (1723) Magnificant (1723) The Passion According to St. Matthew (1729) Christmas Oratoro (1734) BWV is an abbreviation for Bach Werke Verzeichniss, which is a catalog of Bach's works. The catalog is organized by genre, not in the order the pieces were composed.
- 22. In 1721, Bach married Anna Magdalena Wilken, who was a professional singer. They ended up having 13 more children during their marriage. Bach made a final move to Leipzig in 1723. There he became the Director of Music at the St.Thomas School and the Cantor for the St. Thomas Church. He was responsible for all music in all 4 churches in the town. It is interesting to see that Bach did not travel much during his lifetime and stayed within a small area of Germany. This brings Bach’s total of children to 20!!!

- 44. Did you know? Bach shares his birth year with G.F.Handel . Handel also had cataract surgery performed by oculist John Taylor. American composer, Edward MacDowell said, "Bach and Handel were in every way quite different, except that both were born in the same year and killed by the same doctor” .
Notas do Editor
- The Bach family was made up of more than 70 composers and performers in Germany from the 16th to the early 19th centuries. Johann Sebastian Bach, or Sebastian as he was called by his family, was born in Eisenach, Germany on March 25, 1685. His father, Johann Ambrosius Bach (1645-1695), was a renowned violinist and was employed as a court trumpeter and music director in the town of Eisenach. Bach probably learned to play the violin at an early age from his father. His mother, Maria Elisabeth Lämmerhirt (1644-1694), also came from a musical family.
- What was happening during the spikes of research? 1950 is 200 years after his death. 1985 is 300 years after his birth. Could they have found more of his work in the 1940s?
- First page of Bach’s Sonata #1 in g minor for violin – in his own handwriting.
- In each variation, the bass and harmonic structure are the same. Every third variation is a canon based upon successive degrees of the scale (the parts start on the same note, then the second voice starts one note up etc.) Glenn Gould’s 1956 recording is the #1 ‘classical’ piano recording of all time
