Bach's canons, and especially his fugues, are the most characteristic of this style, which he did not invent but contributed to so fundamentally that to a large extent he defined it.

The addition of a Bass puts it upon a harmonic foundation and clarifies it but defines rather than gives it added richness. A melody so accompanied—even though all the notes are not those of the true Bass—or treated with simple embellishments in the upper parts or with simple chords used to be called "homophony". But it is a very different thing when two melodies are so interwoven that they converse together like two persons upon a footing of pleasant equality. In the first case, the accompaniment is subordinate and serves merely to support the first or principal part. In the second case, the two parts are not similarly related. New melodic combinations spring from their interweaving, out of which new forms of musical expression emerge. Suppose more parts are interwoven in the same free and independent manner. In that case, the apparatus of language is correspondingly enlarged and becomes practically inexhaustible if, in addition, varieties of form and rhythm are introduced. Hence, harmony becomes no longer a mere accompaniment of melody but rather a potent agency for augmenting the richness and expressiveness of musical conversation. To serve that end, a simple accompaniment will not suffice. True harmony is the interweaving of several melodies, which emerge now in the upper, now in the middle, and now in the lower parts.</p><div style="clear:both;" class=""></div><p> From 1720, when he was thirty-five until he died in 1750, Bach's harmony consists of this melodic interweaving of independent melodies, so perfect in their union that each part seems to constitute the true melody. Herein, Bach excels all the composers in the world. At least, I have found no one to equal him in music known to me. Even in his four-part writing, we can, not infrequently, leave out the upper and lower parts and still find the middle parts harmonious and agreeable.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEForkel1920[httpsarchiveorgstreamjohannsebastianb00forkuoftpage73mode1up_73–74]_130-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEForkel1920[httpsarchiveorgstreamjohannsebastianb00forkuoftpage73mode1up_73–74]-130"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>128<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Structure_and_lyrics">Structure and lyrics</h3></div> <p>Bach devoted more attention than his contemporaries to his compositions' structure.

Often, recasting such previously composed music in an enhanced structure was the most salient change, as in the <a href="/wiki/Mass_in_B_minor_structure" title="Mass in B minor structure">Mass in B minor</a>. Bach's known preoccupation with structure led (peaking around the 1970s) to various numerological analyses of his compositions, although many of these were later rejected, especially those that wandered into symbolism-ridden hermeneutics.<sup id="cite_ref-Williams1980p217_132-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Williams1980p217-132"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>130<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-133" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-133"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>131<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Libretto" title="Libretto">librettos</a>, or lyrics, of his vocal compositions played an essential role for Bach.

Overall, the extant early works show remarkable mastery and skill. Many feature an instrumental opening which displays effective use of the limited instrumental forces available to Bach, whether it be in the subdued combination of two recorders and two violas de gamba for <a href="/wiki/Gottes_Zeit_ist_die_allerbeste_Zeit,_BWV_106" title="Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit, BWV 106">BWV 106</a>, or the independent bassoon in <a href="/wiki/Der_Herr_denket_an_uns,_BWV_196" title="Der Herr denket an uns, BWV 196">BWV 196</a>. Bach's compositional skills also manifest through his daring harmonies and advanced, unprecedented chord progressions. According to <a href="/wiki/Christoph_Wolff" title="Christoph Wolff">Christoph Wolff</a>, Bach's early cantatas are impressive evidence of how the modest means at his disposal did not restrain the composer in the slightest, and they compare favourably with compositions by the most talented composers from the beginning of the 18th century, such as <a href="/wiki/Johann_Philipp_Krieger" title="Johann Philipp Krieger">Krieger</a>, <a href="/wiki/Johann_Kuhnau" title="Johann Kuhnau">Kuhnau</a> or <a href="/wiki/Friedrich_Wilhelm_Zachow" title="Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow">Zachow</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEWolff2000100–101_147-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWolff2000100–101-147"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>145<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>After taking up his office as <span title="German-language text"><i lang="de"><a href="/wiki/Thomaskantor" title="Thomaskantor">Thomaskantor</a></i></span> in late May 1723, Bach performed a cantata each Sunday and feast day, corresponding to the <a href="/wiki/Lectionary" title="Lectionary">lectionary</a> readings of the week.<sup id="cite_ref-Baroquenet_23-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Baroquenet-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/Bach%27s_first_cantata_cycle" title="Bach's first cantata cycle">His first cantata cycle</a> ran from the first Sunday after <a href="/wiki/Trinity_Sunday" title="Trinity Sunday">Trinity</a> of 1723 to Trinity Sunday the next year.

A decidedly North German influence was exerted by <a href="/wiki/Georg_B%C3%B6hm" title="Georg Böhm">Georg Böhm</a>, with whom Bach came into contact in Lüneburg, and <a href="/wiki/Dieterich_Buxtehude" title="Dieterich Buxtehude">Dieterich Buxtehude</a>, whom the young organist visited in Lübeck in 1704 on an extended leave of absence from his job in Arnstadt. Around this time, Bach copied the works of numerous French and Italian composers to gain insights into their compositional languages and later arranged violin concertos by Vivaldi and others for organ and harpsichord. During his most productive period (1708–1714), he composed about a dozen pairs of preludes and fugues, five toccatas and fugues, and the <i><a href="/wiki/Orgelb%C3%BCchlein" title="Orgelbüchlein">Orgelbüchlein</a></i> or "Little Organ Book", an unfinished collection of 46 short chorale preludes that demonstrate compositional techniques in the setting of chorale tunes. After leaving Weimar, Bach wrote less for organ, although some of his best-known works (the six <a href="/wiki/Organ_Sonatas_(Bach)" title="Organ Sonatas (Bach)">Organ Sonatas</a>, the German Organ Mass in <a href="/wiki/Clavier-%C3%9Cbung_III" title="Clavier-Übung III"><i>Clavier-Übung</i> III</a> from 1739, and the <a href="/wiki/Great_Eighteen_Chorale_Preludes" title="Great Eighteen Chorale Preludes">Great Eighteen Chorale Preludes</a>, revised late in his life) were composed after leaving Weimar.

Some of these pieces, like "<a href="/wiki/Bist_du_bei_mir" title="Bist du bei mir">Bist du bei mir</a>" (copied not by Bach but by Anna Magdalena), became famous before being dissociated with Bach. Bach copied and arranged Italian masters such as Vivaldi (e.g. <a href="/wiki/BWV_1065" class="mw-redirect" title="BWV 1065">BWV 1065</a>), <a href="/wiki/Giovanni_Battista_Pergolesi" title="Giovanni Battista Pergolesi">Pergolesi</a> (<a href="/wiki/BWV_1083" class="mw-redirect" title="BWV 1083">BWV 1083</a>) and <a href="/wiki/Giovanni_Pierluigi_da_Palestrina" title="Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina">Palestrina</a> (<a href="https://imslp.org/wiki/Missa_Sine_nomine_(Palestrina,_Giovanni_Pierluigi_da)#Arrangements_and_Transcriptions" class="extiw" title="scores:Missa Sine nomine (Palestrina, Giovanni Pierluigi da)">Missa Sine nomine</a>), French masters such as <a href="/wiki/Fran%C3%A7ois_Couperin" title="François Couperin">François Couperin</a> (<a href="/wiki/Notebook_for_Anna_Magdalena_Bach#The_1725_notebook" title="Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach">BWV Anh. 183</a>), and, closer to home, various German masters including Telemann (e.g. <a href="/wiki/List_of_solo_keyboard_compositions_by_Johann_Sebastian_Bach#Miscellaneous_suites_(818–824)" class="mw-redirect" title="List of solo keyboard compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach">BWV 824</a>=<a href="https://imslp.org/wiki/Suite_in_A_major,_TWV_32:14_(Telemann,_Georg_Philipp)" class="extiw" title="scores:Suite in A major, TWV 32:14 (Telemann, Georg Philipp)">TWV 32:14</a>) and Handel (<a href="/wiki/St_Mark_Passion_pastiche#Leipzig_1747–1748_(BC_D_5)" class="mw-redirect" title="St Mark Passion pastiche">arias from <i>Brockes Passion</i></a>), and music from members of his own family. He also often copied and arranged his own music (e.g. movements from cantatas for his short masses <a href="/wiki/Kyrie%E2%80%93Gloria_masses,_BWV_233%E2%80%93236" class="mw-redirect" title="Kyrie–Gloria masses, BWV 233–236">BWV 233–236</a>), as his music was likewise copied and arranged by others. Some of these arrangements, like the late 19th-century "<a href="/wiki/Air_on_the_G_String" title="Air on the G String">Air on the G String</a>", helped to popularise Bach's music. </p><p>Sometimes, "who copied whom" is not clear. For instance, Forkel mentions a Mass for double chorus among the works composed by Bach. The work was published and performed in the early 19th century. Although a score partially in Bach's handwriting exists, the work was later considered spurious.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEForkel1920[httpsarchiveorgstreamjohannsebastian01terrgoogpagen187mode2up_140–141]_178-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEForkel1920[httpsarchiveorgstreamjohannsebastian01terrgoogpagen187mode2up_140–141]-178"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>176<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1950, the design of the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis was to keep such works out of the main catalogue: if there was a strong association with Bach they could be listed in its appendix (German: <i>Anhang</i>, abbreviated as Anh.). Thus, for instance, the aforementioned Mass for double chorus became <a href="/wiki/Bach%27s_church_music_in_Latin#Copies" title="Bach's church music in Latin">BWV Anh. 167</a>.

They are rooted in archaic chants, hymns, and chorales. They honor, with consummate skill, the scholastic discipline of canon and fugue. They make expert use of the word-painting techniques of the Renaissance madrigal and Baroque opera. They absorb such stock scenes as the lament, the pastoral, the lullaby, the rage aria, the tempest. They allude to courtly French dances, Italian love songs, [and] the polonaise. Their furious development of brief motifs anticipates Beethoven, who worshipped Bach when he was young.
