In their own lifetimes, these two sons of the Thomaskantor were much more famous than their father. They represented two divergent trends in the music of the time. Emanuel stood for Empfindsamkeit (sensitivity), a way of writing that emphasized emotional expression and often featured surprising harmonies, sudden interruptions, and other dramatic moves. Christian’s name, on the other hand, became synonymous with the style “galant,” a much mellower, happier vein. Yet, as always, one must be careful with generalizations as there are exceptions to every rule. The program will begin with a work by the father where, especially in the shorter dance movements, he clearly prepares the way for the galant style of the next generation. Orchestral Suite No. 1 in C Major, origin. “Stylized” means that the music BWV 1066 (1724) is meant to be listened to rather than Johann Sebastian Bach danced to — a description that certainly Born March 31, 1685 in Eisenach, Germany applies to Bach’s orchestral suites, even Died July 28, 1750 in Leipzig though Bach himself didn’t call them by that name.

    MOZART’S PIANO Program Notes by Charlotte Nediger J.C. BACH SYMPHONY IN G MINOR, OP. 6, NO. 6 Of Johann Sebastian Bach’s many children, four enjoyed substantial careers as musicians: Carl Philipp Emanuel and Wilhelm Friedemann, born in Weimar to Maria Barbara; and Johann Christoph Friedrich and Johann Christian, born some twenty years later in Leipzig to Anna Magdalena. The youngest son, Johann Christian, is often called “the London Bach.” He was by far the most travelled member of the Bach family. After his father’s death in 1750, the fifteen-year-old went to Berlin to live and study with his brother Emanuel. A fascination with Italian opera led him to Italy four years later. He held posts in various centres in Italy (even converting to Catholicism) before settling in London in 1762. There he enjoyed considerable success as an opera composer, but left a greater mark by organizing an enormously successful concert series with his compatriot Carl Friedrich Abel. Much of the music at these concerts, which included cantatas, symphonies, sonatas, and concertos, was written by Bach and Abel themselves. Johann Christian is regarded today as one of the chief masters of the galant style, writing music that is elegant and vivacious, but the rather dark and dramatic Symphony in G Minor, op. 6, no. 6 reveals a more passionate aspect of his work. J.C. Bach is often cited as the single most important external influence on Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Mozart synthesized the wide range of music he encountered as a child, but the one influence that stands out is that of J.C.

  • The J. C. Bach – Mozart Connection
    The J. C. Bach – Mozart Connection ADENA PORTOWITZ “Few composers, Leopold Mozart apart, exercised a comparable influence on the boy or indeed the man.” (Stanley Sadie)1 Johann Christian Bach (1735-82), eighteenth-century composer par excellence, was one of the most respected musicians of his time. Overshadowed by the achievements of the later Classical composers, and totally forgotten during the nineteenth century,2 he reemerged as a composer of significant stature during the twentieth century.3 Focusing on his contribution to music history and his close relationship with Mozart, this renewed interest resulted in numerous scholarly studies, culminating in Ernest Warburton’s monumental 48-volume publication, The Collected Works of Johann Christian Bach.4 Reflecting on these changing fortunes, we may ask ourselves what the factors were that led to a reassessment of Bach’s contribution to the Classical style; what ways these factors were related to Mozart’s high regard for Bach; and why modern Mozartiana has included a revival of Bach’s music. Addressing these issues, this article opens with a biographical survey, illustrating the context of Bach’s life and work. It then continues with a discussion of the Bach-Mozart connection, and concludes with brief comparative analyses of the first movements of Bach’s Symphony Opus 6 No. 65 and Mozart’s Symphony K. 183/173dB, both in the key of g minor. 1 Stanley Sadie, Mozart: The Early Years, 1756-1781 (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2006), p. 89. 2 Bach’s symphonies and concertantes continued to be performed in London for another decade after his death, using published and manuscript scores.

  • Allmusic Review by James Leonard
    A1 AllMusic Review by James Leonard [-] 4+/5 RATING! Although best known for his operas and oratorios along with a couple of occasional orchestral works called Water Music and Fireworks Music, Handel did from time to time turn his compositional attention to the chamber music forms of the late Baroque. This six-disc set on Brilliant released in 2006 collects all Handel's works in the genre in a single, inexpensive package featuring superb performances in 1991 by the English period instrument group L'Ecole d'Orphée. In the flute sonatas, soloist Stephen Preston plays with the kind of warm tone and lyrical phrasing that make Handel's music sound fresh and alive. In the recorder sonatas, Philip Pickett plays with the kind of deep feeling and honest sensitivity that make Handel's music sound even better than it is. And in the violin sonatas and trio sonatas, John Holloway plays with the kind of irresistible energy and unabashed virtuosity that make Handel's music seem fully the equal of their best contemporary competition. With the elegant Micaela Comberti on second violin, the dulcet David Reichenberg on oboe, and the subtle Susan Sheppard on cello as well as either the equally talented John Toll, Robert Woolley, or Lucy Carolan on harpsichord, L'Ecole d'Orphée makes the case for the excellence of Handel's chamber music -- a case only the hard-hearted or hard-headed could dispute. Brilliant's un-remastered digital sound is crisp and clean, but a tad too distant. This extensive survey of Handelʼs chamber music by the ensemble LʼEcole dʼOrphée features leading musicians of the British ‘Early Musicʼ movement.

  • The Bach Family There Has Never Been a Dynasty Like It! We Have
    The Bach Family There has never been a dynasty like it! We have Johann Sebastian Bach to thank for much of the Genealogy as well. In the region of Thuringia, the name of Bach was synonymous with music, but they were also a 'family' experiencing the ups and downs of 17th & 18th century life, from happy marriages and joyful family music-making in this devoutly Lutheran community to coping with infant mortality and dysfunctional behaviour. The Bach Family encountered the lot. In this page, we visit the lives of key members of this remarkable family, a family that was humble in its intent, served the community, were appropriately deferential to their various patrons or princes, and whose music lives on through our performances today. Joh. Seb. Bach's ancestors set the tone and musical direction, but this particular family member raised the bar higher in scale and invention. Sebastian taught his own sons too, plus many of the offspring of his relatives. His eldest sons Wilhelm Friedemann and Carl Philipp Emanuel certainly held their Father in high regard, but also wanted to plough their own furrow - not easy even then. Others either held church or court positions and one travelled first to Italy and then to Georgian London in order to ply his trade - Johann Christian Bach, the youngest son. The family's ancestry goes back to the late 16th/early 17th centuries to a certain Vitus (Veit) Bach (d.1619) who left his native Hungary and came to live in Wechmar, near Gotha in Thuringia. He was a baker by trade.

  • Symphony in B-Flat Major, Op. 18, No. 2 Johann Christian Bach (1735–1782) Written: 1775 Movements: Three Style: Classical Duration: Ten Minutes
    Symphony in B-flat Major, Op. 18, No. 2 Johann Christian Bach (1735–1782) Written: 1775 Movements: Three Style: Classical Duration: Ten minutes Johann Sebastian Bach fathered twenty children: seven with his first wife (and cousin) Maria Barbara, and thirteen with his second, Anna Magdalena. Johann Christian was Sebastian’s youngest son. He studied music with his father in Leipzig. When the old man died, J.C. moved to Berlin to study with his half-brother Carl Philipp Emanuel. When he was nineteen, Johann Christian went to Italy, converted to Roman Catholicism, and became the organist at the Milan Cathedral. Seven years later, he moved to London to write opera for the King’s Theatre. Of all the sons of Johann Sebastian Bach who became composers, Johann Christian was the most famous. The fickle English taste soon tired of J. C. Bach’s music. When he died, he was deeply in debt and nearly forgotten—except by those few who recognized his importance. "You have no doubt heard that the ‘English’ Bach has died? What a loss to the world of music!,” Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote to his father. J. C. Bach wrote “symphonies” at the time that composers were wrestling with the idea that purely orchestral music could exist outside of opera. Instrumental introductions at the theater, designed to quiet the noisy crowd and get them seated for the show, were often called “overtures,” but also “sinfonies.” Italian opera sinfonias—spelling was all over the place in the 18th century—came in three parts: a boisterous first part, a slower middle part, and then a quicker, often dance-like, third.

    Chapter 12: Mid-Eighteenth-Century Stylistic Changes: From Bach’s Sons to the Comic Style I. The Bach Family A. Introduction 1. In the late eighteenth century, the sons of J. S. Bach were considered major contributors to the formation of Classical style. 2. The nineteenth-century revival of music by J. S. Bach, combined with the continued celebration of Handel’s music, contributed to an alternative view of the eighteenth century. B. The Younger Bachs 1. J. S. Bach’s eldest son, Wilhelm Friedemann, composed in a style quite unlike that of his father. a. Melodies that demonstrate balance and contrast b. Pre-ordained harmonic plan c. Periodic phrasing d. The “double return” C. Empfindsamkeit: C. P. E. Bach 1. The music of Bach’s sons does not usually dwell on a single idea, but depends on smaller individual melodies and a variety of emotions. 2. This style, linked with terms such as “sensibility,” is known as Empfindsamkeit. a. The artist attempted to capture the sentiments of real people. b. The composer most associated with empfindsamer Stil is C. P. E. Bach. D. Transcending Words—And Putting Them Back 1. C. P. E.’s Fantasia in C Minor asks the performer to imitate vocal idioms, without having any text. 2. C. P. E. intended to transcend the need for text to guide the artist. a. He thought instrumental music was particularly suited to this aim because of the variety of expression available to the medium. b. He was an early proponent of the argument for absolute music. 3. By the mid-eighteenth century, operatic style adopted the possibilities of expression inherent in recitative, taking opera back to the sound of the early seventeenth century.
