Oh, wow! Do you mean that J.S. Bach wrote music? I thought he was famous
for being the father of P.D.Q. Bach... Did P.D.Q. follow in his fathers
footsteps?

If I recall correctly, Bach wrote the 48 Preludes and Fugues to
show that equal temperament was the way to go.
There were no pianos for most of Bach's time until rather late
in his life. He also hated the pianos of his time, although he
did approve of some of the later ones.

Just think - if Bach knew about pianos made after his time, maybe he's still around and has actually heard some Kate Bush!! :-) Sorry, Jeff Winslow
