As a teacher Bach was the most instructive, clear, and definite that has ever been. In every branch of his art he produced a band of pupils who followed in his footsteps, without, however, equaling his achievement.

It is very unusual to see four pianos in one piece... it makes the interaction between musicians extremely dynamic. ??

New research suggests that practicing Bach and Beethoven can build up the brain.

More than ever, a well-paying career requires sharp mental skills. People who can process information quickly, ignore distractions, and switch smoothly from one task to another are at an enormous advantage in the workplace.
New research identifies one subset of the population that disproportionately possesses those precise abilities: trained, experienced musicians.

this concerto – all its 20 minutes of not-particularly-contrapuntal music – also numbers among Bach’s best works.

The BWV 1052 is one of the finest examples of ritornello form. In it, a repeated section of music, the ritornello (literally “a little thing which returns”) alternates with freer episodes. The ritornello recurs in various keys, often in highly compressed or fragmented form, and its restatement in the home key usually heralds the close of the piece.
