How tall was bach

I still believe he may be exaggerating rofl. The mugshot was published, and they have folks take it without shoes on, I think. He was right at the 6'3" line. So this is accurate.

So he may be 6'4 or 6'5, as I've seen on him. I met him awhile back after a solo show. He seems 6'5'' to me. How tall is he? Really hunches over. Hates his height, like I do. Kinda bloated compared to his Skid Row days. Anybody see Skid Row nowadays? Who sees Ratt without Pearcy? Whatta waste of coin.

I was holding back alicia, but I shall add her soon then and Anna Faris too I haven't forgotten, also that carmen one where she's on her own, that too He comes in a lot, usually around lunch. I'm 5''11 barefoot and really think that he's at the very least 6''6. But he always wears heel shoes, feminine ones. Surprisingly nice and quite articulate. And yes, seemed pretty tall to me. I would have guessed 6'4". Doesn't look 6'5" at all He's pretty funny on that show I agree with Glenn, he wears large shoes to appear taller.

I finally have a look at this geezer I will agree that downgrade, I'm sure I read another quote where he said he wasn't that sure on his height, I might come across it in the future. Did you ever get any pictures with him Glenn? What better reason than truth?

Of course we all have worries weaving through our lives - big or little disasters of health or money, problems in personal or world relationships, disappointments, sadnesses, things we wish we didn't have to think about.

They are there, and they will not go away just because it is Christmas. Maybe there is a lesson there for us.

Maybe, adapting to fresh environment, with its good and bad aspects, we too can see truth and give out confidence and joy to make this a truly Merry Christmas. Comments on this story?

Although the Leipzig Council had enough money, they never honored the promised salary of talers a year; promised to Bach by the Mayor of Leipzig, Gottlieb Lange, at the hiring interview.

Bach worked diligently, in spite of being underpaid for 27 years until his death. On top of that local political factions in the Leipzig Council manipulated Bach's educational work as well as his compositions and public performances. They were pressuring him as the Cantor and Composer and interfering his creative efforts by imposing restrictions on his performances because of their ugly political games.

On December 3, , Bach married Anna Magdalena bee Wilcke , a talented soprano, who was 17 years his junior. They had thirteen children. Bach fathered a total of 20 children with his two wives. The descendants of Bach are living in many countries across the world. Back in Arnstadt, Bach wrote 'Toccata and Fugue in D Minor' , his first masterpiece; which stemmed from his bold organ improvisations.

At that time he was in love with his second cousin Maria Barbara; whom he was taking upstairs to the church organ, where her presence was inspirational for his creativity. Bach was punished for the violation of the restrictions on women's presence in the church and he was fired. However, he eventually married Maria Barbara. Cross-cultural studies: Bach studied the orchestral music of Antonio Vivaldi and gained insight into his compositional language by arranging Vivaldi's concertos for organ.

Six French suites were written for keyboard; each suite opens with 'Allemande' and consists of several pieces, including 'Courante', 'Sarabande', 'Menuet', 'Gavotte', 'Air', 'Anglaise', 'Polonaise', 'Bourree', and 'Gigue'. As suggested by their titles, the pieces were representing songs and dances from various cultures.

From the music of the Italians Antonio Vivaldi, Arcangelo Corelli, and 'Giuseppe Torelli'; Bach adopted dramatic introductions and endings as well as vivacious rhythmical dynamism and elaborate harmonization. Bach also performed the music of English, French, and Italian composers; motets of the Venetian school, and incorporated their rhythmical patterns and textural structures in the development of his own style.
