The title is misleading,

A rewarding half hour with J S Bach, but the title is misleading. Bach's years of service as a musical director in the Lutheran churches of Leipzig are not emphasized.

This hardly does justice to the title, "Serving God Through Music", where one would expect illustrative examples of Bach's cantatas as well as excerpts of his St. Matthew and St. John Passions and the Mass in B Minor.

The people interviewed make it clear that they love and are in awe of Bach. The length is relatively short (about 30 minutes)--this makes it an excellent choice for use in the classroom. (Topics covered include Brandenburg Concertos, large scale vocal works --passions and masses, and Bach's life)
