Hooray!!!!!!! This is the greatest quote I've heard so far! I would
like someone to come up with a good way that Bach could have been more
"adventuresome"!!! Hmm...I don't think anyone will be able to give a good
example. Bach wrote in virtually every genre. He was great melodically,
his harmonies were quite ahead of his time in many examples, and his
counterpoint is unequaled. Furthermore, I find it a shame when composers
strive more or are known more for their creativity than their actual music.
what you end up with is a name in a history book and not one seat filled at
a concert! Don is the man!!! And he shows it quite clearly with his
addition to this thread! Thanks Don!
