 * Bach came from a family of musicians, stretching back several generations. At the age of 7, Bach went to school where he received religious instruction and studied Latin and other subjects. When he 10, he found himself an orphan after the deaths of his parents. Bach stayed with his brother's family till about the age of 15. Bach had the most wonderful soprano singing voice, which had helped him land a place at a school in Luneburg. In 1703, he had his first job as a musician at the court of Duke Johann Ernst in Weimar.

bach had a growing reputation as a great performer,. He was responsible for providing music for religious services and special events as well as giving music instruction. Bach diss appeared for several months in 1705 which didn't help the situation he was in. He didn't get along with his students and was harassed by the church officials for not rehearsing enough. In 1707, Bach with great excitement left arnstadt for an organist position at the church of St. Blaise in Muhlausen. One of Bach's most famous work was the cantata "Gottes Zut ist die allerbeste zeit", also known as Actus Tragieus.

Some styles that Bach used were generally unusual forms as in Toccata and Fugue in D-Minor, Mass in B-Minor, Counterpoint, and fugue. He had written all these styles and forms in French and Italian.

Bach survived long enough to provide a full picture of himself as a person. In 1749, Bach started a new composition called "the art of fugue", but never completed it. Bach then created musical interpretations of the Bible using choruses, arias and recitatives. ||  ||   ||   ||
