Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) is not only one of the greatest symbols of the late Baroque period, but also of classical music in general. He was a virtuoso whose music made him one of the most important figures in the history of music - many consider him to be the greatest composer of all time.
The St Matthew Passion by Johann Sebastian Bach is a perfect example of his musical genius: the styles already established in Germany were significantly enriched by his addition of Italian and French elements. The result was compositions which bring together the best of Western music at the time.
The highly influential Bach family of musicians included several city musicians, organists, and composers, who were active from the second half of the 16th century to the mid-19th century. However, Johann Sebastian's works, such as the Prelude and Fugue No. 1 in C major, BWV 846 and the Concerto for two violins in D minor, BWV 1043 undoubtedly make him the most important artist of his musical lineage.
