BORN 19 Dec 1746, Ehrenbreitstein - DIED 17 Jul 1787, Bonn

Johann Christoph Bach was his older brother who took him and his other brother, Johann Jacob Bach who is 3 or 2 years older than him, in after their parents' death.

Those are the only two who are mentioned.

Yes. Guillaume Dufay lived from about 1397 to 1474, and the Renaissance era lasted from about 1400 to about 1600.

His name is Bill Stephen Henry. He lived in Texarkana Texas and wrote the song before he died in 1996. Died of a brain tumor. Check out his other music if you can find it. What a change was nominated for a dove award. He was my brother

I think it's called 'O Mio Babbino Caro'. Check it on youtube if you're referring to that song. Good luck! (PS: You might want to listen to Nessun Dorma too, it's epic!)

He married Cecile Jeanrenaud, daughter of a French Reformed pastor, and they attended the Reformed Church in Leipzig thereafter.

Harpsichord, violin. I think he also played piano but in his day piano could only play 5 octaves and the little hammers that hit the strings were tiped with leather insted of felt like today. Because of this they couldn't play realy fast trills like todays pianos.

In the West, there still exists debate about the political allegiances that Soviet composer Dmitri Shostakovich held during his life. After Shostakovich's death, author Solomon Volkov published Testimony, Shostakovich's memoirs, which scathingly criticized Communist political and musical authorities. However, the book's authenticity has been hotly debated, sparking in the West a decades-long controversy about Shostakovich's political allegiances: specifically, whether Shostakovich was a loyal Communist as he outwardly appeared (a view supported by Laurel E. Fay and Richard Taruskin), or whether he harbored dissenting sentiments (a view supported by Elizabeth Wilson and Ian MacDonald). Russian musicologists have largely dismissed this controversy, however, and most post-USSR books published about Shostakovich -- including those by Sofia Khentova, along with many primary sources like Isaak Glikman's commentary on Shostakovich's private letters -- acknowledge the composer as both a private and public dissenting voice.

No. John Williams was born on February 8, 1932, and is very much alive at age 79.

'Canon' means repeated in a loop in a sense.

This piece is about the development of the chord sequence that Pachelbel started off with.

But if you're asking for the meaning, it's all down to personal interpretation

Religion infers a 'world view' and certainly Georges Bizet had one.

He struggled with writing music for religious venues, which could mean that he had his differences with organized religions based on his world view.

In the related links box below, I posted the video.

They are two completely different people. Just because they both write music, doesn't make them the same. Handel was a baroque, German composer, and Mozart was a classical, Austrian composer. Their attitudes were different and pretty much the only thing they had in common was that they wrote music.

He most likely wrote it on a commission to earn some money; as he did with a lot of his later works.

Stravinksy and Schoenberg

Beethoven did not die of cirrhosis.

Some scholars claim Beethoven's death was due, in part, to lead poisoning. Tests have recently confirmed that Beethoven died as a result of lead poisoning. This was attested to by the fact that he suffered from stomach ailments for much of his life, another sign of lead poisoning.

It is not known what caused Beethoven's exposure to lead poisoning for so much of his life. There is speculation that, because he was a fairly heavy drinker, he perhaps drank from lead cups. Another alternative is that, because he had consulted so many doctors for his various ailments, lead exposure may have come from the many medical treatments he received which, in his time, were often laced with heavy metals. See the Web Link below regarding these tests.
