Description: Johann Sebastian Bach: Organ Music - Fantasy & Fugue in G minor BWV542; Prelude Product Description Johann Sebastian Bach's is a house-hold name, often spoken with reverence in well deserved recognition of his lasting legacy as a defining composer of the Baroque era. Born in 1685, J.S. Bach was known during his lifetime as an organist, organ consultant, and composer of traditional German genres, including preludes, fugues, toccatas, fantasias, and chorale preludes. He was influenced by the great German composers of the time, such as Georg Bohm and Dieterich Buxtehude, but also incorporated French and Italian musical styles into his work. Bach was a prolific composer of keyboard works, chamber music, orchestral music, and vocal and choral works, including cantatas, motets, Passions, oratorios and masses. His compositions often reflected where he had a position at the time, whether instrumental, keyboard or vocal music: Weimar, Arnstadt, Muehlhausen (1703-1708), return to Weimar (1707-1717), Koethen (1717-1723) and Leipzig (1723-1750). Barbara Harbach, Curators' Professor of Music at the University of Missouri St. Louis, has a large catalog of works, including; symphonies, operas, string orchestra, musicals, works for chamber ensembles, film scores, modern ballets, pieces for organ, harpsichord and piano; choral anthems; and many arrangements for brass and organ of various Baroque works. She is also involved in the research, editing, publication and recording of manuscripts of 18th century keyboard composers, as well as historical and contemporary women composers. Her work is available in both recorded and published form through , Naxos Records, Gasparo Records, Kingdom Records, Albany Records, Northeastern Records, Hester Park, Robert King Music, Elkan-Vogel, Augsburg Fortress, Encore Music Publishers, Art of Sound Music, Agape Music and Vivace Press. Harbach serves as editor of the WomenArts Quarterly Journal and has toured extensively as both concert organist and harpsichordist throughout the United States, Canada, Belgium, Bosnia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Korea, Romania, Serbia and Siberia. Her lively performances and recordings have captured the imagination of many American composers. The body of work written for and dedicated to Harbach is substantial. She was host of the weekly television music series Palouse Performance seen throughout the Inland Northwest. Harbach holds academic degrees from Pennsylvania State University (BA), Yale University (MMA), Musikhochschule (Konzertdiplom) in Frankfurt, Germany, and the Eastman School of Music (DMA). In 2002, she received an honorary doctorate in music, Honoris Causa, from Wilmington College, Ohio for her lifetime achievement as a composer, performer, editor and publisher.
