Near the end of Johann Sebastian Bachs life there was a move away - TopicsExpress



          

Near the end of Johann Sebastian Bachs life there was a move away from the more learned forms in music, mainly fugue and counterpoint. His sons were some of the leaders of this change to the style galant that would lead to the Classical Era of Haydn and Mozart. Amid all the changes in musical style of the time, the Elder Bachs music was being looked upon as well crafted, but old fashioned. But Johann Sebastian could compose in the newer style of melody and accompaniment when he so chose. Bach was in many ways the culmination of the Baroque Era in music, and within that culmination lay the seeds of the future. muswrite.blogspot/2014/01/bach-organ-concerto-in-minor-bwv-593.html
