(1)Missing Bach original piece found after 80 years

TACHIKAWA, Japan - Tadashi Isoyama, a professor of Kunitachi College of Music, looks at a musical score composed by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), which had been missing for about 80 years and has been found among the possessions of the late Japanese pianist Chieko Hara, at his school in Tachikawa on April 3. Researchers describe the 1728 composition ''Wedding Cantata BWV 216'' as an invaluable discovery that will lead to a greater understanding of the German composer during his prime. (Kyodo)
