Art of fugue: Contrapunctus XIV (the final fugue) First and last four notes of the masterpiece: B,A,C,H (german letter notation) B(flat), A, C, B (standard notation) It still makes me sentimental knowing that Bach loved music so much, that he still wrote when he was in sheer pain and suffering crying http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vacZrMF32Y

I am very inspired by Bach's music. I favor baroque music, and he's one of my absolute favorites. He was amazing and truly a genius.

I favor the Baroque as well whee
He really was a genious. It has been said: "If music were religion, then Bach would be God."
To think he wrote the Well Tempered Clavier as an exercise and to show people how to tune a harpsichord.
His music exhilirates me, have you ever heard the Chromatic Fantasy?

I wrote a poem about Bach and God, a few years ago.
The idea was, that Bach's music makes me feel as if I'm in a church. As if I AM a church, and I am full of praise and love for God.
And I don't even go to church x3

I like to play Bach's Toccatas. His Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue is fun too, it's just really difficult >_<

 After I wrote my mid- term on Bach, I respect his work even more. Honestly if you ever get the chance read a biography of his.

His music exhilirates me, have you ever heard the Chromatic Fantasy? first off i agree! second he wrote the WTC as lesson books for his children

My all time favorite compositions of his were the unacompanied cello suites he wrote. Other than those, I really don't care for him. But just so nobody jumps at me, the prelude to suite 1. is my favorite piece of all time. I think the best performer of these suites is Mstislav Rostropovich(I just think he is the Greatest Cellist in Recorded History) I strongly recommend youtubing him play the suites if you have never heard them before.

The bach cello suites are my world.
In New York there this music festival/competition called NYSSMA. I had been praticing a Saint-Seans peice with my teacher for almost a year, but when I got to the competition, I didn't want to play it. Instead, I played the prelude to the second suite in D minor from memory, even though it wasn't even in the NYSSMA manual listing of songs cellos could play! I got an 98/100 and have loved Bach ever since.
He is pure genius, as is all Baroque music
