I can't help but notice that in every subject I've looked at, the higher
the grade, the more Bach pieces there are on the syllabus.
Even for singing. I didn't know Bach *wrote* anything suitable! >_<

What can I say? I like organ music, and that's the only reason I've ever
heard of Bach. Before I started looking at organ music, I'd never heard
of him.
But then, before I started looking at organ music, I *was* only 8 years
old. :-P

I'm sure you've never heard of the likes of Mozart, Chopin, Liszt,
Rachmaninoff and others too. They never did anything for organ (not
sure about Mozart). Bach was far more prolific than most. :)

Mozart did do some organ stuff, and Lizst actually wrote some rather
large-scale and very inventive organ pieces. Still not nearly so many
as Bach of course.

Gobsmacked that you've never heard of the Brandenburg concertos.

Ah, yes, in his older days. Still, are we talking about the same Liszt? ;)

What he doesn't understand is that Bach is the Emacs of classical
composers. :)

Apparently you have never been to the Netherlands at the time of
Eastern. For some obscure reason there are hundreds of performances of
his St Matthew Passion (and some John). Most with very good musician,
some less quality and we also have the sing along Passions that are in a
quality category of their own. Ok that obscure reason may be that it is
absolutely fantastic music.
I also tend to play it most of the week before Eastern.

Ok, then there is some hope.
