Air on the G String - Johann Sebastian Bach



AIR ON THE G STRING
(Johann Sebastian Bach)
Sung by: Libera

This used to be my lullaby some months ago along with Vivaldi's Four Seasons, Strauss's The Blue Danube etc. Thanks to the Reader's Digest Classical Music Collection CD. :) 

SONG FACTS: (Wikipedia.org)

The original orchestral suite was written by Bach for his patron Prince Leopold of Anhalt some time between the years 1717 and 1723

The Air on the G String was the very first work by Bach to be recorded
