Two members of the J.S. Bach family were represented today on the Morning Program: Papa Bach, in a cantata movement arranged by Arnold Schoenberg; and the youngest son of Johann Sebastian, by way of a symphony he wrote. The younger Bach was only fifteen when his father died, and was particularly famous in London for his symphonies and keyboard concertos. Who is this so-called “London” Bach?
