October Composer- Bach

Welcome back.

We'll get right to it- our composer this month is JS Bach. He was born in Germany in 1685 on March 21st. How old would he be on his birthday?


I thought my guitar students would like this!

Here is a fun website about Bach especially for kids-

Be sure and listen to the toccata at the end. You'll hear it again!




What instrument is being played? Is there more than one? I like the visual line on the video, helps you see the direction of the melody.

Here's some informative and fun videos about him.
