Bach is probably best known as an organist/composer of organ music. He also composed choral sacred cantatas, pieces for the harpsichord, notably the Goldberg Variations; orchestral works such as the Brandenburg Concerti. Violin and cello solo works and choral masses and the "Christmas Oratorio" and "Magnificat" help round out the list.

Johann Sebastian Bach did not compose opera, as this genre was not a focal point of his work. While he wrote significant instrumental and vocal music, including cantatas, concertos, and oratorios, the operatic form was more developed by his contemporaries like Handel. Additionally, he did not create popular music or folk music, which were outside the scope of his compositional style and training.
