Johann Sebastian Bach Composer Artist Classical

Johann Sebastian Bach was born in Eisenach. He was the youngest child of Johann Ambrosius Bach, organist at St. George's Church, and Maria Elisabetha Lämmerhirt Bach.
His uncle, Johann Christoph Bach introduced him into the art of organ playing.
In 1735 he drafted a geneaology called Origin of the musical Bach family. It traced the history of generations of 53 musical Bachs.
Bach's mother died in 1694, and his father died eight months later. The ten-year-old orphan moved in with his eldest brother, Johann Christoph Bach, the organist at nearby Ohrdruf.
There he copied, studied and performed music, and apparently received valuable teaching from his brother, who instructed him on the clavichord. He exposed him to the work of the great South German composers of the day.
Bach's obituary indicates that he copied music out of Johann Christoph's scores, but his brother had apparenty forbidden him to do so, possibly because scores were valuable and private commodities at the time.
In January 1703, shortly after graduating, Bach took up a post as a court musician in the chapel of Duke Johann Ernst in Weimar, a large town in Thuringia. His role there is unclear, but appears to have included menial, non-musical duties.
On July 7, 1720 while Bach was abroad with Prince Leopold his wife, Maria Barbara, the mother of his first 7 children, died.
The following year, the widower met Anna Magdalena Wilcke, a young, highly gifted soprano who performed at the court in Cöthen; they married on 3 December 1721. Together, they had 13 more children, of whom Gottfried Heinrich, Johann Christoph Friedrich and Johann Christian became significant musicians
