J. S. Bach
J. S. Bach
Johann Sebastian Bach (Born in Eisenach, March 21, 1685 and died July 28, 1750) was a composer, harpsichordist, Kapellmeister, conductor, organist, teacher, violinist and violist from the Holy Roman Empire, present-day Germany. Born into a family with a long musical tradition, he soon showed talent and soon became a complete musician. A tireless student, he acquired a vast knowledge of European music of his time and of previous generations. J S Bach was a committed Christian and wrote much of his work for God. In his original scores he used to write "Only Glory to God". J. S. Bach held various positions in German courts and churches, but his most prominent roles were that of Kantor of the Church of St. Thomas and Musical Director of the city of Leipzig, where he developed the final and most important part of his career. Initially absorbing the great repertoire of Germanic contrapuntal music as the basis of his style, he later received Italian and French influence, through which his work was enriched and transformed, realizing an original synthesis of a multiplicity of tendencies. He practiced almost all musical genres known at his time, with the notable exception of opera, although his mature cantatas reveal a lot of influence from what was one of the most popular forms of the Baroque period. S. Bach is considered to be the greatest genius of baroque music, one of the greatest references in classical music's generosity. His Works for Flute, Concerts, Suites and Sonatas are masterpieces and standard and mandatory repertoire for flute.

Kuhlau
Friedrich Daniel Rudolf Kuhlau (11 September 1786 – 12 March 1832) was a Danish composer during the later Classical and Romantic periods. He was a central figure of the Danish Golden Age and is immortalized in Danish cultural history through his music for Elves' Hill, the first true work of Danish national romanticism and a hidden tribute to absolute monarchy. To this day, it is his version of that melody that is the definitive arrangement. During his lifetime, Kuhlau was known primarily as a concert pianist and composer of Danish opera, but he was responsible for introducing many of Beethoven's works, which he greatly admired, to Copenhagen audiences. Kuhlau was a prolific composer, as evidenced by the fact that although his house burned, destroying all of his unpublished manuscripts, he still left a legacy of over 200 published works in most genres.
