Georg Christoph Bach (6 September 1642 – 27 April 1697) was a German composer and organist.  He was the uncle of J. S. Bach.

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And You Must Be…. 


When the Bachs got together,

I’m wondering whether

     It caused them disorientation.

With a family so big,

(And each man in a wig),

     Did they wear some identification?


And I ask, was Georg Christoph

A little bit pissed off

     (As they mingled about by the dozen),

When he was called Johann

Or Heinrich (and so on)

     By some erring uncle or cousin?
