About 'Air on the G string'
Born:
21 March 1685
, Eisenach
Died:
28 July 1750
, Leipzig
The Artist:
One of the greatest composers of all time. Bach wrote hundreds of pieces for organ, choir, as well as many other instruments. He spent most of his life as a church organist and a choir director. His music combines profound expression with clever musico-mathematical feats, like fugues and canons in which the same melody is played against itself in various ways.
 Composed:
1720 circa.
  Info:
Originally part of the orchestral suite No 3 and written for Prince Leopold, Bach's employer in the  little principality of Anhalt-Cothen between 1717 and 1723, the 'Air on the G string'  arrived in its current popular form over 100 year later, when German violinist August Wilhelm arranged the piece for violin and piano to be played on the evocative G-string of the violin .
