Johann Sebastian Bach and the Bach family
Johann Sebastian Bach is one of the most important composers of Western music history. He came from a widely ramified musical dynasty, which produced numerous musicians and organists in the Thuringian-Saxon area.

Since the founding of Carus-Verlag, Johann Sebastian Bach’s music has played an important role. We have published all of Bach's sacred vocal music in modern Urtext editions together with performance material. The Complete Edition of all scores in a high-quality boxset is also available.
