The birth of Bach

Johann Sebastian Bach was born March 21, 1685 according to the calendar in effect at the time (which is actually March 31 in modern times) in Germany. Interestingly, he wasn't widely recognized as a great composer until a revival of interest in his music nearly a hundred years after his death. Of course, he's now generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time.

Composer: Bach

Solo, chamber, and orchestral repertoire from the Baroque master
