Answer 2

Johann Sebastian Bach (March 21, 1685-July 28, 1750) was a German Baroque arranger. He was probably the best writer ever, yet during his lifetime, he was generally secret and was for the most part perceived for performing on the organ. Bach created in many set up melodic structures, including, for instance, the cantata and fugue, and formed them into unpredictable and brilliant pieces. He formed more than 1,100 works in pretty much every melodic sort (aside from show).

He had more than 20 kids, including four who became renowned artists in their own right, including Carl Philipp Emanuel, Wilhelm Friedemann, Johann Christoph Friedrich, and Johann Christian.:
