Platypus Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 I fought a bit of that program too. Have the rest recorded, so will catch up on it later. It looks a lot more interesting than most Saturday night tv Quote
essexbasscat Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 The evolution of musical form from pre - Vivaldi to Bach and Handel is inspiring. Beethoven should be interesting ! Quote

Bassic Posted February 3, 2013 Author Posted February 3, 2013 drinking and brothels now thats rock n roll not so sure about the billiards thou ha ha apparently bach was the genius that we owe most of what we try an do today too. A musical einstein in the words of the programme Quote
Lord Sausage Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 He most definitely was! He was the guy who essentially made the rules, then broke em. A bit of a bach cliche but true. When i started playing bass my teacher at school started me off on Bach etudes. At the time i was like whats this...this ain't Guns n Roses, but it was all good. Quote

There would not have been any 'Whiter Shade of Pale' if Bach had not got his Cantata 140 together. Garry Quote
