Description:

The chapel organist, J.S. Bach, is enraged. It's bad enough his boss, Duke Wilhelm, stifles his creativity. Now the bumbling fool has given him a servant he suspects is a spy! But soon, the temperamental composer recognizes a kindred soul in his new 10-year-old assistant, Frederick. For both know too well what's its like not to be able to follow your dream. Set in 1717, Bach's 32^nd year, Bach's Fight for Freedom passionately argues that the only master you can serve faithfully is your own heart.
