Johann Sebastian Bach - Musical Offering

Johann Sebastian Bach - Musical Offering Synopsis

In the final years of his life, Bach slowly withdrew from the world. He put some order into his works and, as a solitary figure, pushed to its extreme limits the art of counterpoint that had accompanied for five centuries the development of Western music. He also kept a strict eye on his sons and students as they ventured into new forms, those of the burgeoning classical style, which, according to him, were far from having proved themselves.
