He composed for the glory of God and it comes through in each and every piece. Did you know also that he died a poor man? For such a prolific composer, busy and important teacher and organist, and his pure genius, amazing to think he was undervalued in his lifetime. <br /><br />Playing Bach always reminds me why I'm a pianist. A heavenly reminder.Kate Harveyhttp://something-ivory.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-35509323362327673102013-03-28T09:22:14.122-04:002013-03-28T09:22:14.122-04:00Hear hear!Hear hear!Jess C.noreply@blogger.com
