They May Be More Handsome.....

...definitely.....more intense...
..more brooding...exceptionally more sexy.....

...and I love the music the brooding man made, but I also love the music this man made. Wow! Thirteen (?) children, such prolific accomplishments...not the children, but the music.

If you have never listened to Bach, do so. All of his music is not for everyone...but some is.

It's his birthday this weekend. Give yourself a present, say Happy Birthday to an amazing man.

His music, like Beethoven's, spans the entire universe of human emotions, dreams, hopes and desires....what it means to be a creative genius...gifts to us from a higher being.

Best

It's hard not to listen to Bach and to feel a whole range of emotions. Some days just call for Bach ... he was an amazing composer. I still hum many of his inventions & sinfonias from my early piano-playing days.

Thank you for visiting my blog. I love finding new blog reads ...

"Gone Chopin. Bach in a minuet."

Sorry, sometimes when the world is so seriously sad we have to throw in some "silly" to the mix;) AND my friend, the above is "silly" but made me smile:)
I hope it does the same for you;)

Hug Bach, Marylou ^-^

Sorry, I stopped reading at Colin Firth...

Ok. All good now. I'm more of a Mozart girl but I'll admit that Johann had that chops. :)
