| Added by magataganm, 22 Jun 2017 Johann Sebastian Bach was better known as a virtuoso organist than as a composer in his day. His sacred music, organ and choral works, and other instrumental music had an enthusiasm and seeming freedom that concealed immense rigor. Bach's use of counterpoint was brilliant and innovative, and the immense complexities of his compositional style -- which often included religious and numerological symbols that seem to fit perfectly together in a profound puzzle of special codes -- still amaze musicians today. Many consider him the greatest composer of all time. One lesson offered by historical studies of musical styles is that the greatest composers almost never abandon their musical heritage entirely even in their most progressive compositions. They tend to build their works upon existing styles and genres, and then transform them into new styles in ways unprecedented in their times. In this tradition, Bach created this arrangement of his own Violin Sonata No.2 in A Minor (BWV 1003). Source: AllMusic (http://www.allmusic.com/album/js-bach-sonatas-for-harp sichord). Although originally written for Harpsichord. I created this Arrangement of the Sonata in D Minor (BWV 964) for Viola & Concert (Pedal) Harp.
