Comment from the artist:
Honouring one of my four favourite composers, Johan Sebastian Bach. Bach is represented here surrounded by violins of different colours, which represent the baroque of his music. These violins are coming out of the head of the composer, as from his brain origins this marvelous music he bequeathed to the next generations.
A partition, written by Bach himself, constitutes part of his clothing, symbolizing the complete fusion existing between his music and the composer himself. |
