Johann Sebastion Bach was a famous composer and he played the organ. He had 20 children, can you believe that? He had some boys and girls and he said to them, "come on let's play music." He said to Johanna, his little daughter, to keep practicing. He was 65 when he died. He walked for four whole days just to see Johann Adam Reinken play at a church. He wanted to be like him. It's sad that his parents died when he was just 10, but he got to live with his brother. Bach's dad taught him to play the violin. He was born in Germany a long time ago, but his music is still good. A man named Felix Mendelssohn discovered Bach's compositions and put them into 60 volumes of music because no one knew who Bach was and Felix thought everyone should know him. I am glad Felix found them. One of Bach's most famous pieces is Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring. He was a great composer.
