I agree that he’s the greatest composer of all time, that said I don’t think everything he wrote is gospel…
If I had to choose, I’d say overrated slightly, relative to people considering him a “god” of music (just look at youtube or Facebook comments haha). I think he was a very human composer, with highs and lows.

On the other hand, I think he’s underrated on da sdc for maybe obvious reasons…

Bach is even better when he’s dressed up as Busoni.

Bach is like all other composers in that not every single work is a masterpiece. However, few, if any, reached the heights that he did in his greatest works.

Comparing Bach to Scriabin is a little :crazy_face:

Hmmm both have a similar level of craftsmanship, control over voice leading and form. It’s not a bad comparison imho.

I don’t think Henry Miller knows anything about those elements.
