Product description
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period.
This series of publications is actually comprised of five narrowly focused series: Piano Music from His Early Years, Piano Music Inspired by Women, Dances of... and Humor in Piano Music. They are a result of in-depth musicological study by Dr Hinson. Each series provides assistance in the areas of performance practice and historical backgrounds as they relate to each piece.
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period. He is considered one of the greatest musical geniuses of all time. He was a master of polyphony and brought to perfection the musical form of the fugue. He composed 1126 musical compositions of various forms (they are referred to by the abbreviation BWV and serial number). In his time, Bach became famous mainly as a keyboard player, but as a composer he was less known. His music was perceived as conservative, and after his death it fell into oblivion for almost fifty years.
