Review:
The Bach-Museum is housed in the home and gardens of the Bose family, contemporaries of Johann Sebastian Bach. It is across the square from St Thomas musical school where Bach was the Cantor from 1723 until his death in 1750. This position included the musical directorship of St Thomas, St Nicholas and two other churches. The museum owns the second largest collection of original Bach works in the world. The permanent exhibitions showcase his family history, the orchestral instruments that fascinated him and documents written in his own hand. The Bach competition and Bachfest are events organized by the museum.
