A bust of the man in my life, Johann Sebastian Bach, in the Nikolaikirche in Leipzig.
On Wednesday morning I am off on my travels again, this time to Köthen, in Saxon-Anhalt, a town where Bach lived and worked from 1717 to 1723. It was in this small town that he composed his famous six Brandenburg Concertos. I am very familiar with all six, and once heared them all performed one evening in the Assembly Rooms in Bath, sitting underneath one of the magnificent chandeliers.
Back soon with photos and for Information about my visit.
