Johann Christoph Friedrich Bach (21 June 1732 – 26 January 1795) was a harpsichordist and composer, the fifth son of J. S. Bach, and is sometimes referred to as the "Bückeburg Bach".

Call Me By Your Name

He shared his year of birth with Haydn,

And had a dad he could take pride in,

And if his nickname isn’t charming,

It’s not insulting or alarming.

And “Bückeburg Bach,” his frequent moniker

Couldn't have been much more Teutonicker.
