<br />
The [[wikipedia:Bach family|Bach family]] already counted several composers when Johann Sebastian was born as the last child of a city musician in [[wikipedia:Eisenach|Eisenach]]. After being orphaned at the age of 10, he lived for five years with [[wikipedia:Johann Christoph Bach (organist at Ohrdruf)|his eldest brother Johann Christoph]], after which he continued his musical formation in [[wikipedia:Lüneburg|Lüneburg]]. From 1703 he was back in [[wikipedia:Thuringia|Thuringia]], working as a musician for [[wikipedia:Protestantism|Protestant]] churches in [[wikipedia:Arnstadt|Arnstadt]] and [[wikipedia:Mühlhausen|Mühlhausen]] and, for longer stretches of time, at courts in [[wikipedia:Saxe-Weimar|Weimar]], where he expanded his [[wikipedia:pipe organ|organ]] repertory, and [[wikipedia:Anhalt-Köthen|Köthen]], where he was mostly engaged with [[wikipedia:chamber music|chamber music]]. From 1723 he was employed as [[wikipedia:Thomaskantor|Thomaskantor]] ([[wikipedia:Cantor (Christianity)|cantor]] at [[wikipedia:St. Thomas School, Leipzig|St.&nbsp;Thomas]]) in [[wikipedia:Leipzig|Leipzig]]. He composed music for the principal [[wikipedia:Lutheran|Lutheran]] churches of the city, and for its university's student ensemble [[wikipedia:Collegium Musicum|Collegium Musicum]]. From 1726 [[wikipedia:List of compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach printed during his lifetime|he published]] some of his [[wikipedia:keyboard instrument|keyboard]] and organ music. In Leipzig, as had happened during some of his earlier positions, he had difficult relations with his employer, a situation that was little remedied when he was granted the title of court composer by his sovereign, [[wikipedia:Augustus III of Poland|Augustus]], Elector of Saxony and King of Poland, in 1736. In the last decades of his life he reworked and extended many of his earlier compositions. He died of complications after eye surgery in 1750 at the age of 65.<br />
<br />
Bach enriched established German styles through his mastery of [[wikipedia:counterpoint|counterpoint]], [[wikipedia:harmony|harmonic]] and [[wikipedia:Motif (music)|motivic]] organisation, and his adaptation of rhythms, forms, and textures from abroad, particularly from Italy and France. [[wikipedia:List of compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach|Bach's compositions]] include [[wikipedia:Bach cantata|hundreds of cantatas]], both [[wikipedia:Church cantata (Bach)|sacred]] and [[wikipedia:List of secular cantatas by Johann Sebastian Bach|secular]]. He [[wikipedia:Bach's church music in Latin|composed Latin church music]], [[wikipedia:Passions (Bach)|Passions]], [[wikipedia:List of masses, passions and oratorios by Johann Sebastian Bach#Oratorios and associated cantatas|oratorios]], and [[wikipedia:List of motets by Johann Sebastian Bach|motets]]. He often adopted [[wikipedia:Lutheran hymn|Lutheran hymn]]s, not only in his larger vocal works, but for instance also in [[wikipedia:List of chorale harmonisations by Johann Sebastian Bach|his four-part chorales]] and [[wikipedia:List of songs and arias by Johann Sebastian Bach|his sacred songs]]. He wrote extensively [[wikipedia:List of organ compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach|for organ]] and [[wikipedia:List of keyboard and lute compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach|for other keyboard instruments]]. He [[wikipedia:List of concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach|composed concertos]], for instance [[wikipedia:List of orchestral works by Johann Sebastian Bach#Violin concertos (BWV 1041–1043)|for violin]] and [[wikipedia:Keyboard concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach|for harpsichord]], and [[wikipedia:Suite (Bach)|suites]], [[wikipedia:List of chamber music works by Johann Sebastian Bach|as chamber music]] as well as [[wikipedia:Orchestral suites (Bach)|for orchestra]]. [[wikipedia:List of fugal works by Johann Sebastian Bach|Many of his works employ]] the genres of [[wikipedia:canon (music)|canon]] and [[wikipedia:fugue|fugue]].<br />
<br />
Throughout the 18th century Bach was primarily valued as an [[wikipedia:organist|organist]], while his keyboard music, such as ''[[wikipedia:The Well-Tempered Clavier|The Well-Tempered Clavier]]'', was appreciated for its didactic qualities. The 19th century saw the publication of some major [[wikipedia:Biographies of Johann Sebastian Bach|Bach biographies]], and by the end of that century all of his known music had been printed.

His music was further popularised through a multitude [[wikipedia:List of transcriptions of compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach|of arrangements]], including, for instance, the ''[[wikipedia:Air on the G String|Air on the G String]]'', and of recordings, such as three different box sets with complete performances of the composer's oeuvre marking the 250th anniversary of his death.</div>Johnrdorazio
