Ajoutée par magataganm, 06 Fév 2017 Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 – 1750) was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period. He enriched established German styles through his skill in counterpoint, harmonic and motivic organisation, and the adaptation of rhythms, forms, and textures from abroad, particularly from Italy and France. Bach's compositions include the Brandenburg Concertos, the Goldberg Variations, the Mass in B minor, two Passions, and over three hundred cantatas of which around two hundred survive. His music is revered for its technical command, artistic beauty, and intellectual depth. Bach's abilities as an organist were highly respected during his lifetime, although he was not widely recognised as a great composer until a revival of interest in and performances of his music in the first half of the 19th century. He is now generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time. The Suite in Bb Major (BWV 821), is a 5 movement Suite published in the Bach-Gesellschaft Ausgabe (BGA) as Bach's but banished to a supplementary volume of the New Bach Edition (NBA) containing works of uncertain authorship. On a stylistic basis this little suite is no less plausibly Bach's than the others considered in this reference. It has the misfortune of being preserved only in a copy of uncertain provenance that found its way into the Kellner miscellany (P 804). Several of the "Neumeister" chorales attributed to J. S. Bach show parallels with the last movement, and other details also suggest Bach: the first half of the Allemande swerves toward the Neapolitan (m. 8) in a manner reminiscent of the untitled dance in BWV 822, and there are melodic formulas common in Bach's early pieces. The overall form (three dance movements framed by a prelude and an "echo") resembles that of BWV 833. Source: IMSLP (http://imslp.org/wiki/Suite_in_B-flat_major,_BWV_821_( Bach,_Johann_Sebastian)).
