The opera he had labored on for years, a radical new score full of color and rhythm, was rejected by the Parisian public and the musical press on its premiere at the Opera-Comique.

One spring day in 1720, Johann Sebastan Bach left his home in Köthen in the company of his employer, Prince Leopold, to visit the spa in Carlsbad, 185 miles away.
