@JDMusicTuition There was a Wilhelm Frederich Ernst Bach who was composing around 1800. He was the last one AFAIK. Are you familiar with the actor Kyle McLachlan? He claims to be a direct descendant of JS, on his mother's side.

My favorite of the Bach sons, listen to his concertos .. I prefer the major key fast movements, this guy was the most inventive composer of the 18th century in my opinion.

@gjc82071 J.C. Bach was the English Bach if I am not mistaken. I think the sons of the sons of the sons of J.S. Bach had pretty big shoes to fill themselves as the line seems to have died out there.

On peut même entendre le thème du tout début de la sonate pour flûte et piano de Francis Poulenc à 4mn18s.

Étonnant non?

Yes, a good family to be a part of! I think JC Bach was the 'London Bach', he met the young Mozart!
