Johann Sebastian Bach was the greatest musician of all time. He might not be your personal favorite composer, he isn't mine. There might be plenty of classical or popular musicians you derive more pleasure from listening to. But Bach's music is objectively the artistic peak of the medium, regardless of personal tastes.

>objectively
Yucky take.

He may have been ok back then but he's nothing but someone that most people get annoyed by now. I'd probably commit suicide if I lived back then and had to listen to him all the time.
>>
>>131074546
You wouldn't have heard him even once, since you'd be busy outside digging ditches.
>>
Reminder that Bach's favorite composers were Vivaldi and Buxtehude, and he idolized both. You should too

>>131074546
You sound like a moron.

>>131074378
Absolutely.

bruh

Seems to be liked by people who don’t really like music. “Wow its so mathematical!” Bach is semi-barbaric, at least when adored in a modern context. Still great though
>>
>>131074378
He's fine but hes no Wagner
>>
>>131074546
Man imagine living back then when there really was nothing better than Bach to listen to. I shudder at the thought
>>
>>131074378
the folk musicians of his time mogged him and this continues with modern day composers

You sound retarded lol

>>131076102
You don't even like music. You just like to feel faux sophistication lol. You don’t care for the song of the heart. You just want to call your superiors retards. Read this

>and at the conclusion of the evening, talking about a funeral cantata by Bach, R. says: “Bach and Diirer, they are two of a kind, both possess in the same degree a quality of inner sadness and also the same taste for mysteriously imaginative ornamentation. Only in Bach there is unfortunately still too much of what was then fashionable, the marks of a bad period.”
