J.S. Bach has been noted for several things. Mostly it is his reputation of writing music. As far as this is concerned though, there are three sides: pro-Bachists; Anti-Bachists; and Neutralists. Pro-Bachists like (and in some cases, love) Bach's music. Anti-Bachists are self explanitory: A party that consists of people who honestly and completely dislike Bach's music. Neutralists don't care about Bach one way or another. His best piece is supposed to be the one called Prelude and Fugue.

Much of Bach's music was dedicated to God, or the church for which he played the organ. Throughout history, there have been many different opinions about Bach and his works. In short, Bach is noted for his compositions.

In his time, Bach was known primarily as a virtuoso keyboard player, whether it be harpsichord or organ. His talent in keyboard is nearly unparalleled lest we compare him with the likes of Chopin and Rhubenstein. His complex polyphonic fugues show just how much he had mastered the keyboard both in performance and composition
