Bach FAQ 40

Did Johann Sebastian Bach Practise Much?

Yes, Johann Sebastian Bach has practised really much. Because practising much with making music was his philosophy. After all an anecdote is handed down, when somebody asked him, how he could possibly create such dreamlike music and was even able to perform these partially really hefty parts. He replied, he had to be busy very early – and with much modesty he added for his students, "...if you are as busy as I am, than you will play music as good as I do it."
