Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) married his second wife in 1721. By that time, he was already an established organist, court and chamber musician, and Kapellmeister at the Cöthen court. After their marriage, the couple started right away on a Keyboard Notebook (Clavier–Büchlein) for Anna Magdalena's practice. Eventually they collected two separate books (begun in 1722 and 1725), which are known today as the Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach. Editor & recording artist: Christos Tsitsaros.
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.
