Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help Bach, Johann Christian (b . Sept. 5, 1735, Leipzig [Germany]d. Jan. 1, 1782, London, Eng.), composer called the "English Bach," youngest son of J.S. and Anna Magdalena Bach and prominent in the pre-Classical period. J.C. Bach received his early training from his father and, probably, from his father's cousin Johann Elias Bach. After his father's death (1750) he worked with his half-brother, C.P.E. Bach, in Berlin. At the age of 20 he made his way to Italy and in 1756 became a pupil of Padre Martini in Bologna. Having a grace and tactfulness of manner notably lacking in older generations of Bachs, he found a generous patron; his compositions, though immature, were in a serious style and largely liturgical. Having become a Catholic convert, he was appointed organist of Milan cathedral in 1760. His conversion was thought cynical and reprehensible by his strongly Lutheran family, from whom he became somewhat estranged. His taste next turned to opera, and he was thought to have neglected his official organist's duties. In 1762 he became composer to the King's Theatre in London and wrote a number of successful Italian operas for it. He also produced much orchestral, chamber, and keyboard music, and a few cantatas. He started his fashionable series of concerts two years later with the celebrated viola da gamba player Karl Friedrich Abel. Receiving a lucrative appointment as music master to Queen Charlotte and her children, he became a social as well as a musical success. In 1772 he was invited to write an opera for the German elector at Mannheim.

Introduction Cantatas Other Vocal Instrumental ... Z Johann Christian Bach [50] (Composer) Born: September 5, 1735 - Leipzig , Germany Died: January 1, 1782 - London, England Johann Christian Bach [50] was a composer of the Classical era, the eleventh and youngest son of J.S. Bach [24]. He is sometimes referred to as 'the London Bach' or 'the English Bach', due to his time spent living there. He is noted for influencing the concerto style of Mozart. Life Johann Christian Bach [50] was born to J.S. Bach [24] and Anna Magdalena Bach in Leipzig , Germany. His distinguished father was already 50 at the time of his birth, which would perhaps contribute to the sharp differences between his music and that of his father. Even so, his father first instructed him in music until he died when Johann Christian was 15, after which he worked in Berlin with his second oldest brother Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach [46], considered at the time to be the most musically gifted of Bach's sons. Johann Christian Bach lived in Italy for many years starting in 1756, first studying with Padre Martini in Bologna and later with Giovanni Battista Sammartini. He became an organist at a cathedral in Milan in 1760. He also embarked on an operatic career, with operas staged in Turin and Naples. During his time in Italy he converted from Lutheranism to Catholicism. He met soprano Cecilia Grassi in 1766 and married her shortly thereafter. She was about eight years older than Johann Christian and, perhaps because of this, they never had children.

Log in Johann Christian Bach Dates 5 Sep 1735 - 1 Jan 1782 Biography Life He enjoyed a promising career, first as a composer then as a performer playing alongside Carl Friedrich Abel, the notable player of the viola da gamba. He composed cantatas, chamber music, keyboard and orchestral works, operas and symphonies. Contrasting styles of J. S. Bach and J. C. Bach J. C. Bach and the symphony The symphonies in the Work List for J. C. Bach in the New Grove Bach Family listed ninety-one works. A little more than half of these, 48 works, are considered authentic, while the remaining 43 are doubtful. By comparison, the composer sometimes called "the Father of the Symphony," Joseph Haydn, wrote 104 symphonies. Most of these are not fully comparable to Johann Christian Bach's symphonies, because many of Johann Christian's works in this category are closer to the Italian sinfonia than to the late classical symphony in its most fully developed state as found in the later works in this category by Haydn and Mozart. Using comparative duration as a rough means of comparison, consider that a standard recording of one of Bach's finest symphonies, Op. 6 No. 6 in G minor, has a total time of 13 minutes and 7 seconds (as performed by Hanover Band directed by Anthony Halstead), while Haydn's "Surprise" Symphony in a typical recording (by Ádám Fischer conducting the Austro-Hungarian Haydn Orchestra) lasts 23 minutes and 43 seconds.
