Excellent!

thanks for posting this. I'm starting to love all of the Bachs' music, but so far this piece is their most rhythmic and powerful. I hear some of vivaldi's influence.

thumbs up if you came here to make this into a beat

I could swear I heard the short sequence starting at 2:56 somewhere else before, but i can't remember where! It sounds like Gluck but i could be wrong. Does someone know?

He is what Beethoven was to the romantics only but for the classical era. Check out my amatuer videos to see some of his keyboard works.

@1fattyfatman Hey, just to let you know, Bach was actually from the Baroque era of music (before the classical era). Also, Beethoven came about around the end of the classical era and only saw the beginning of the Romantic period. So, technically he wasn't even a master of the Romantic period as it still had some evolving to do. Personally, Chopin is my favourite composer from the Romantic era, Mozart from the classical and Bach from the Baroque. Bach is the overall master though I believe =)

@AritchWyess You're probably confusing this guy (Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach 1714-1788) with his father (Johann Sebastian Bach 1685-1750). Bach the elder is indeed still very much a Baroque composer, whereas C. Ph. E. is more of a transitional figure between late Baroque and early Classicism. As a matter of fact, in those days he was more famous a composer than his father, due to his style being more in touch with mid-18th Century tastes and sensibilities.

Lord have mercy I love his music it is so real! This man needs to be brought from obscurity to the light! He needs a complete re rendition of all of his works! They must not be lost!

[N6NZE]

At the closure of all his compositions

J.S. Bach would always pen

"Soli Deo Gloria"

Glory only to God.

Truly a man who knew his source!
