  • When Mozart heard about JC Bach's death at age 46 in London in 1782, he wrote to his father and said 'what a loss to the musical world!'. Bach had died in poverty, and forgotten by the fickle public. But Mozart, of course, remembered. JC Bach was no less a genius than Haydn. Indeed his brothers WF Bach and CPE Bach are also sadly neglected geniuses. Their roles in the development of classical music have been frequently overlooked.

  • Linda musica!

    I wasn't talking to you. My post was in response to supremustotus...

  • No, I didn't think of JS Bach. Mozart learnt about JS Bach music much later in his life and this influenced his Jupiter symphony. But musically he was always very close to JC Bach. And this piece is the tribute to the memory of Johann Christian Bach.

  • @supremustotus

    You're thinking of Johann Sebastian Bach, they're talking about JC(Johann Christian) Bach, one of JS Bach's sons.

  • This movement is Mozart's tribute to the memory of J.C.Bach. He used some melodies of J.C.Bach in it. Earlier he had composed a few piano concertos based on J.C.Bach's music. I know of no other composer who was so close to Mozart in his approach to music.

    Actually, When I think of Classical music, the first name that comes to mind is JS Bach. I don't know... Maybe that's just because I'm classically trained...

  • This is on another level....

  • @caddencadden If they were as you say 'just ordinary people..' who were the extraordinary people?

  • Makes me sleep.

  • Great "toucher" on the piano

  • sorry but the people who made this kind if music were just ordinary people trying to make a living, i bet they had no idea their music would live on to this day and have us people talk about it like the way we do, oh my what i would do to go back in time and meet these great people and tell them what they have created for us. I CANNOT FIND MUSIC LIKE THIS FROM RECENT COMPOSERS ANYWHERE!
