Thanks to all that took a listen,
@RealKevM - Cheers, any ideas for some lyrics, you are always good with those...
@Dogmax - No idea how old he was but how many Rockn Roll heroes could match this...
In 1706, he married his cousin Maria Barbara Bach. The couple had seven children together, some of whom died as infants. Maria died in 1720 while Bach was traveling with Prince Leopold. The following year, Bach married a singer named Anna Magdalena Wülcken. They had thirteen children, more than half of them died as children. but also when he wasn't doing
that stuff he was doing
this stuff...
Johann Sebastian Bach composed cantatas, motets, masses, Magnificats, Passions, oratorios, four-part chorales, songs and arias. His instrumental music includes concertos, suites, sonatas, fugues, and other works for organ, harpsichord, lute, violin, cello, flute, chamber ensemble and orchestra.
There are over 1000 known compositions by Bach. Nearly all of them are listed in the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (BWV), which is the best known and most widely used catalogue of Bach's compositions.(My title BMW was a little tongue in cheek), I only have respect for the guy AND his Misusses, for any really talented composer these days, a successful Cantata would be simply the pinnacle of ones career, but this guy. WOW. No one hit wonder.
Another observation purely from an artists point of view, there are pieces that are difficult to play but not enjoyable, Bach's pieces are usually difficult but so wonderful to play, (Hendrix's "Castles made of Sand" is another wonderful piece to play)
@CaliaMoko - Cheers Vicky, I was never into Mozart, he was all too twiddly, and I've had too many Mozart Kuegeln in my life, it's just that face staring up at you...Arrrrgh
Anyway this post is about fitting lyrics to it, I can't see that it would work, hence the question, and if it can be done I would really admire the person that could pull it off. I bet there is a Bach equivalent of lyric writing that do do it, Half Man Half Biscuit lyricist maybe?
