Famous story of painters and musicians: Bach, the "father of music"

Bach (1685 ~ 1750) was born in a German musical family. Less than 10 years old, his parents died, and he lived with his eldest brother. Because he was deeply influenced by music since he was a child, he was very interested in music. He vowed to learn music well and achieve more brilliant achievements than his predecessors.

His brother is a court musician, but he is firmly opposed to his younger brother learning music. Because he knows that he works in the imperial court and is only a "senior servant", he can't let his brother follow in his footsteps. However, my younger brother, who has already made up his mind to learn music well, has not changed his original intention at all. However, where does the music material come from? Bach knew clearly that it was impossible to borrow books from his brother, and finally came up with a "brilliant idea": while his brother was not at home, he quickly "stole" the music from the bookcase and copied it by the dim moonlight. I guess I'll put it back when my brother comes back soon. That's how he steals from school every day.

Once, when he was about to finish copying, his brother suddenly went home and his behavior was discovered at once. The younger brother was so angry that he immediately tore his brother's carefully copied music into pieces, slapped him angrily and ordered him not to learn music again. Bach was not discouraged by his brother's repeated obstruction. Unable to copy the score, he came up with another clever plan. Whenever my brother rehearses or performs, he always hides in the corner and secretly watches the rehearsal. When he comes back, he will imitate and study the rehearsed program again.

In this way, year after year, through hard work, Bach finally realized his wish and became a world-famous great composer. His works for later generations include: Brandenburg Concerto, French Suite, English Suite, Coffee Cantata, etc. In particular, the collection of twelve isothermal piano music is the most valuable classic in the world music treasure house.

Therefore, Bach has always enjoyed the reputation of "the father of music" in the history of music.
