Bach- minuet in G major. J S Bach was a German composer and keyboard player. During his lifetime Bach was chiefly known for his masterful organ and harpsichord playing; his great genius as a composer was only really discovered in the 19th century. Bach wrote organ music, including choral preludes, preludes, fugues, and toccatas; orchestral and chamber works, including the Brandenburg Concertos; and church music, including the St Matthew Passion. Noteworthy among the collections of his keyboard works The Well-Tempered Clavier and The Goldberg Variations.

  • oh this is so beautiful. I usually listen to Rock n' Roll bands like KISS or G n' R and Pop such as Gaga, but I also need classic music like this :)

  • my second song when i was learning piano first one is fur elise

  • now i have more peace of mind

  • Here's a good reason so many people 'feel' they've heard this before. Search for 'The Toys .......A Lovers Concerto'

  • @caddencadden Here's one maybe you don't know - Jethro Tull did an instrumental in the late sixties, with the flute the major instrument, called 'bouree'. J.S. Bach wrote it for the classical guitar.

  • @youureebeautiifulllx OMG you're my annoying neighbor child

  • i was looking for scary g-major

  • I heard Bach for the first time a quarter of a century ago and thought he was a genius. He has sounded better every time I have played him since. It just sounds like the harmony, balance and proportion that must lie within the heart and soul of the universe. Words are a blunt instrument. Music is a sensual rather than a cerebral experience. Just play some Bach. You'll know what I mean. He said it better without words.

  • @caddencadden: Bach wrote scads and oodles of chamber music for the court of his time. If you can set your watch by the beat of the music, then it is most probably Baroque period, and most likely Bach. Bach and Handel wrote a lot of the music of this time period that way. Look up the Bach concertos or Handel's "Messiah" oratorio.

  • @bman1248 Still, many of these are ascribed to JS Bach, as opposed to CPE Bach.
