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.

LYRICS:
Wir gehn nun, wo der Dudelsack
In unsrer Schenke brummt;
Und rufen dabei fröhlich aus:
Es lebe Dieskau und sein Haus,
Ihm sei beschert,
Was er begehrt,
Und was er sich selbst wünschen mag!
ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
Let’s go, where the bagpipe
Whines away in our pub;
And we’ll shout out gleefully:
Long live Dieskau and his family,
We hope he gets
Everything he wants,
And even what he might not dream of!
