Minuet In G (A Lover`s Concerto) Minuet in G (A Lover`s Concerto)
Actually, this explanation is not very accurate,

, and it must be mentioned that Bach wrote many songs for his women, but this one is not. This was written when he found the position of organist and court music director in Weimar in 1708. This period was later called the "Weimar Period". At the end of 1714, Bach visited the city of Kassel for a performance.

Johann Sebastian Bach was born on March 21, 1685 (the same year as Handel, another master we have introduced before), a lover of Thuringia in central Germany. The town of Sennacher is his hometown. Bach was born into a real musical family, because the Bach family has been engaged in the music profession in Eisenach since his grandfather's generation. The father named the new-born child "Johann Sebastian", so he took the first letter of the two names, and later generations abbreviated it as "J.S.Bach".
Due to his family environment, Bach had an inseparable relationship with music since he was a child. Under his father's guidance, he quickly mastered the technique of violin playing and became the leader in the school choir. When he was ten years old, both his parents passed away, and Bach had to leave his hometown to join his elder brother in Ordruf. Heber, Bach continued to learn keyboard instrument playing from his elder brother. His strong thirst for knowledge and hard practice made him progress rapidly and laid a solid foundation for his future career.
During the golden period of his music creation career, he created the "Well-Tempered Piano Collection" as well as "6 Brandenburg Concertos", "7 Piano Concertos", "Violin (Double Violin) Concerto" and "Brandenburg Concertos". Concerto" and many other works, he is now the father of music.
