"We know very little abaout Bach's life. There are only a few facts to go on and our image of him is skewed by statues and paintings of a stern forbidding figure in a frock coat and a powered wig.
And then there is the music.
Bach is still the benchmark, a musical gold standard, the ultimate composer's composor, influencing countless others from Mozart to Mendelssohn, Beethoven to Brahms, etc..."

from youtube, Sir J. E. Gardiner, A passionate life for Bach

"O Leipzig, du boser wurm! Dich wird ein grosses vungluck vbergehen von wegen hurerey, hoffart vnd des wuchers halben. Du bist erger dan Sodoma und Gomorra, darumb wird dich Gott gräülich straffen..."
Thomas Kunat, Famulus Luthers; Luthers Tischreden 5/5633

500 Years of Reformation., s.a. The Leipzig Debate
In spite of Luther's feeling of doom regarding the immorality of Leipzigs City life, Leipzig as a town of trade fair and a vivid centre of university and spirital life, it has developed into an important economical and intellectual centre: the spirit of reformation, the tradition of free thinking and acting has held on its effects on the 'PEACEFUL REVOLUTION' 1989 in Leipzig.
