Music by Johann Sebastian Bach used in the Millennium episode The Thin White Line

 
An image related to Johann Sebastian Bach whose music was used in Millennium.

Johann Sebastian Bach (21 March 1685 - 28 July 1750) was a prolific German composer and organist whose sacred and secular works for choir, orchestra and solo instruments drew together the strands of the Baroque period and brought it to its ultimate maturity. Although he introduced no new forms, he enriched the prevailing German style with a robust contrapuntal technique, a control of harmonic and motivic organisation from the smallest to the largest scales, and the adaptation of rhythms and textures from abroad, particularly Italy and France. He is regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time.
