JS Bach is without a doubt the man I would most want to meet, interview, view perform, etc. It is hard to put into words, but his music is just inexhaustibly deep, challenging, joyful, profound, etc. in any given week I will spend some time listening to some modern band, maybe dabble in Beethoven symphony or two for a few hours, get pulled into a Stevie Wonder album, but I always, without fail, return to Bach. He is literally the “sun” in my little galaxy of music; all rotates around him and no matter where I am in a given day, I may just cut what I’m listening to short and put on some Bach.
I struggle to think of anything that engages my analytical brain and artful soul so fully and simultaneously. How the hell did he do it?!
