How do they know it wasn't from P.D.Q. Bach? The worst composer in known musical history :)

Everything causes a disturbance on its surroundings. It's like making a recording on a disc. Maybe someday we'll be scanning glass or stone or something like that with lazers and resurrecting lost works.

It's like bringing back extinct species. We may be able to recover lost works.

I certainly would love to hear the St. Mark's and St. Luke's Passions.

Maybe we'll be able to replay the audio-recording from Bach's spectacles or the church windows or something and actually hear his performances.

I know. I know. It's like reading the Akashic Records. We can already read them to some extent. It's just a matter of increasing the extent.

Since Bach was required to write a new major piece of music each WEEK this probably represents a few minutes of work.

"Concerto For Horn and Hardart" was one of his best compositions.

Demonstrating Bach's
amazing foresight, the score
includes specs for which

sound card it should be
played through to best capture its
range and dynamics!

Would Bach cry if he stubbed his toe?

Nope, he would Wachet Auf
