Happy Birthday J.S. Bach and Joseph Haydn!
Johann Sebastian Bach was born on March 31st, 1685 and Joseph Haydn was born on March 31st, 1732 (although some sources claim he was born on April 1st). Share some of your favourite works by these composers if you want to!

I love Bach's Art of Fugue, especially his unfinished Contrapunctus XIV.

Very Cool! Bach's a fantastic composer and seems pretty rad in general, tuning organs and making light of death in its impact on his paycheck. I even heard he'd improvise at his favorite coffee shop just for the coffee. Haydn I should hear more of.

I knew it was Haydn's birthday but not Bach's. Happy birthday to both!
