Part I: Johann Sebastian Bach: Childhood and Early Years. Our new Composer of the Month is considered to be one of the greatest composers of all time. His name is Johann Sebastian Bach. Johann Sebastian Bach was born on March 21, 1685 in a little town in Germany called Eisenach. Bachâs father, Johann Ambrosius, was a musician. As the need arose, Ambrosius played either at the. ducal court, for the town orchestra, or as the organist in the town church.
Johann Sebastian Bach was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period. He is known for instrumental compositions such as the Brandenburg Concertos and the Goldberg Variations, and vocal music such as the St Matthew Passion and the Mass in B minor. Since the 19th-century Bach Revival he has been generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time. The Bach family already counted several composers when Johann Sebastian was born as the last child of a city musician in Eisenach.
