During his life, J. S. Bach was not as popular as Beethoven and Mozart during their lifetimes. His music was considered hard to understand and even harder to play. Although Bach wrote more than 1,000 pieces of music, very few were published while he was alive. An employer originally rejected one of Bach’ s most famous works, the Brandenburg Concertos. Bach composed the piece in 1721 as part of a job application. He never even got a response, let alone the job he wanted. More than 100 years later, the piece was finally published. Today, you can hear orchestras all over the world playing Bach’ s Brandenburg Concertos, which offers just one example of how public opinion of Bach has changed. Now the composer is considered one of the most brilliant minds of Western Civilization.
Bach’ s music is very complex. During his lifetime no one could imitate him. Instead of writing just one melody(旋律)into his music, he often used two. The two melody lines are kept separate throughout the music, like two voices having a conversation. But they are also precise, like a mathematical equation set to sound. To the skilled listener, Bach’s complexity adds endless depth. Bach studied hard and expected his students to do the same. He once said, " I was obliged to be hard-working: whoever is equally hard-working will succeed equally well." Bach was a very patient and kind teacher.
Bach combined the notes from different instruments in a new way. More than anything, he wanted to invent. He was always
experimenting with
new patterns of music. He did not worry that others did not like his music. He just said, "If you cannot please all by your art or your work, satisfy the few. To please many is bad." Bach had a great influence on many of the composers who came after him.
The phrase "experimenting with" (Para. 3)is closest in meaning to "______".
