Bach's
Childhood

Once upon a time, in a not to distant past, a certain genius was born. Not more then a month after George Frederick Handel was born, Johann Sebastion Bach entered this world on March 21, 1685. It is recorded in a book kept by the church of Eisenach that :

"March 23, 1685. To Mr. Johann Ambrosius Bach, Town Musician, a son, godfathers Sebastian Nagel, Town Musician at Gotha, and Johann Georg Koch, Ducal Forester of this place. Name: Joh. Sebastion."
