Badass Birthday
On this date in 1685, Johann Sebastian Bach was born in Germany.
Bach was a German composer and musician of the late Baroque era. He composed music for multiple instruments and styles, such as orchestral, solo instrumental, keyboard, organ, and choral pieces.
Some of his most recognizable works include: Toccata and Fugue in D minor; Cello Suite No.1 in G Major and the Brandenburg Concertos, a collection of six. I promise you, if you check them out on Youtube, especially the first two, you've absolutely heard them before.
He passed away in 1759 at the age of 65. And when you've made music that is still being played, heard and recognized more than 250 years after you death, certainly you're the definition of a badass!
