JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH b. 1685, d. 1750
Bach's prodigious output-little played for some 75 years after his death - marked the end of a musical era to which his contribution was immense. His compositions for organ, his orchestral music and his great choral works are the ultimate technical development of the musical style of his time. He frequently borrowed music - by himself or others - and recast it in a new form. This week's programmes explore a few of these transformations.
