Notes & Reviews:
The Bach dynasty produced an astonishing number of fine musicians. The great Johann Sebastian towers over them all, and his sons, Carl Philipp Emanuel, Johann Christoph (II) and Wilhelm Friedemann exerted a considerable influence upon the musical world of their time, providing the link from the Baroque to the Classical. However, less is known about the Bach family's composers before Johann Sebastian. This CD contains motets by his great uncle Johann, born in 1604, and cousin Johann Ludwig, born just seven years before him. The greatest of the Bach family composers on this disc is Johann Christoph (I). He was a strong influence upon his cousin, Johann Sebastian, who wrote of him as being "a profound composer".
