Johann Friedrich Fasch (1688-1758) was born near Weimar and became a scholar of the Thomasschule in Leipzig, where he studied under Kuhnau. He founded a Collegium musicum which eventually led the way to the establishment of the famous Gewandhaus concerts. In 1722 Fasch was appointed Court Kapellmeister at Zerbst, and later was invited to compete for the post of Cantor at the Thomasschule against Bach, but he refused to do so. Bach appears to have held a high opinion of Fasch's music. Not only did he study a number of Fasch's church cantatas, but he actually copied out five of the composer's orchestral suites. Apart from religious music, Fasch wrote various orchestral and chamber works.
