Added by alastair-lewis, 03 Aug 2011 Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach was a German musician and composer who lived in the 18th century (8 March 1714 – 14 December 1788). He was the second child of the composer J. S. Bach and his wife Maria Barbara Bach. His second name was in honor of his godfather Georg Philipp Telemann, who was another German composer and friend of J. S. Bach. Four of J. S. Bach's children ultimately became professional musicians and they were all almost exclusively trained by their father. C. P. E. Bach also studied law and attended university, but soon after graduating he followed his first love, music. Armed with a recommendation from the famous lutenist Sylvius Leopold Weiss, he was able to obtain an appointment in the service of Crown Prince Frederick of Prussia, the future Frederick the Great. C. P. E. Bach contributed to the transition between the Baroque and Classical eras and influenced later composers such as Mozart. This free sheet music is for guitar duet. |
