Johann Christoph Bach

Johann Christoph Bach (baptised 18 December [O.S. 8 December] 1642 – 31 March 1703) was a German composer and organist of the Baroque period. Johann Christoph was an older cousin of Johann Sebastian Bach who would later describe him in his Genealogy (Ursprung, 1735) as “the profound composer”, suggesting a solid reputation not only within the family but also in wider musical society. He is not to be confused with Johann Sebastian Bach’s son, Johann Christoph Friedrich Bach.
