Our second birthday boy for this month is one Johann Friedrich Fasch, born on the 15th of April, 1688, in Buttelstedt, Germany. The musical style is of the mid-to-late Baroque period, and I had a little difficulty choosing which item to share with you today. Rather excellent music to background work and puzzling, this, so I've bookmarked this playlist... I rather suspect a few of you may wish to do so, also! Here's a shortish introduction to the work of Herr Fasch...
To be able to play the violin so beautifully requires genius indeed.
