What made JS Bach so awesome?
 

He's one prolific Baroque genius mofo. That much is sure. Click here for my fave

First I though there is a JS framework named Bach or something lol

someone posted this - watch how he plays - absolute economy of motion

Bach: Harpsichord Concerto No.1 in D Minor BWV 1052 (Jean Rondeau: Dynastie)

And a great chorus from B Minor Mass Passion

JS Bach - Mass in B Minor - Sanctus

Bach is genius. Like of Richter Good-tempered clavier playing

Thanks for sharing. Those were BEAUTIFUL! Someone once said that Bach simply transmuted MATH into music. I beg to differ. If that were the case, his music would be soulless. The fact that it speaks to all people from all over the world hundreds of years after just shows how truly HUMAN and UNIVERSAL his art is.

Bach unterstood base of music. No only music math, sense of sounds game too.

what made him awesome was that he lived in a time where you can not fake your way to fame...you can not "justin bieber" "kim kardashian" or "cuntry X has got talent"...dumbasses did not have access to TV or the internet and the only venues where music was played was pay-to-access...this limited the crowds to people with money, this in turn kept the selection process of what was good and what was not good within the most intelligent people of that time...

things have changed now that dumb people have access to youtube and soundcloud and what not...

[Chorus: Rihanna]
He want that...
Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake
Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake
Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake
(But you wanna put your name on it)
Ooh, baby, I like it
It's so exciting
Don't try to hide it
I'ma make you my bitch
Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake
Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake
Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake

The wig made him awesome . . .

Wait, What? You mean to tell me the song below is NOT a classic??? :winkwink:
