[6:40]

Sebastian - Episode 02: Sebastian's education at the Ohrdruf Lyceum isn't all roses and he often ends up in conflict with master Herda. He has to learn the hard way that there's no place for new ideas.
[9:11]

Sebastian - Episode 03: After a 250-mile journey on foot to Lüneburg, little Sebastian and his older mate Georg Erdmann finally arrive at the St. Michael's Academy and are received by headmaster Georg Böhm. Much to Sebastian's horror, his reputation travels faster than him.
[9:51]
Sebastian - Episode 04: After having been under the wings of Georg Böhm for a couple of years, Sebastian wants to go to the big city of Hamburg, to visit Johann Adam Reincken, one of the greatest masters of his time. But it turns out that meeting the old master's more difficult than anticipated...
[12:32]
Sebastian - Episode 05: Sebastian's disappointed when he realises that approaching Johann Adam Reincken, one of the greatest masters of his day, turns out to be more difficult than anticipated. He decides to return home, but then something very unexpected happens...
[12:06]
Sebastian - Episode 06: Sebastian's becoming renowned as one of the greatest talents that have ever studied at the Lüneburg academy. An irresistible job offer follows suit but it soon turns out that the job isn't what he'd hoped for. Until... he meets an angel.
[14:49]
Sebastian - Episode 07: After having been reprimanded severely for "inappropriate behaviour", Sebastian asks for leave to travel to Lübeck, to visit the greatest master of his time: Dietrich Buxtehude. He gets four weeks, but Sebastian's so fascinated by master Buxtehude that he "forgets" to return in time.
[15:12]
Sebastian - Episode 08: Sebastian gets another severe reprimand for having returned three months late. Frustrations about his job and the narrow-mindedness of his masters keep piling up. In a mad impulse, he decides to blow up all bridges and to run off with the girl of his dreams.
[13:51]
Sebastian - Episode 09: Another job, the same frustrations. In strict and puritan Thuringia there doesn't seem to be much room for music that's out of the ordinary. The situation's getting very tense but, in his moment of despair, Sebastian receives a very unexpected visit.
[14:51]
Sebastian - Episode 10: Sebastian's finally getting recognition in Weimar and the duke's getting very fond of him. Still, the old ducal palace is keeping a dark secret...
[14:44]
Sebastian - Episode 11: The French keyboard master Louis Marchand presents himself at the court of Elector Frederick-Augustus of Saxony. The Elector is so impressed that he replaces his musical director Jan Woulmeyer with the Frenchman. Unfortunate Jan, however, has a brilliant friend...
[16:45]
Sebastian - Episode 12: Sebastian imagined that his return from his duel against Marchand would have been a happy one, but finds that his patron isn't pleased with his too eager performance at the Dresden court. This is, however, nothing compared to the tragedy that awaits him at home...
[17:38]
Sebastian - Episode 13 (part 1): Duke Wilhelm has organised the wedding between his nephew Ernst-August and princess Eleonora-Wilhelmina of Anhalt-Köthen. The Duke thinks rather low of the Köthen family and orders Sebastian to show off so he'll look better than the prince. His plan, however, doesn't turn out the way he'd hoped...
[10:09]
Sebastian - Episode 13 (part 2): Sebastian's brilliant performance for prince Leopold wasn't appreciated by all. A nasty surprise awaits him in the middle of the night.
[8:24]
Bach - Episode 14: Sebastian and his family are overjoyed with their new life at the Köthen court. He even ventures to use a new tuning system and insert unseen harmonies in his music. All roses? The final scene will make your blood run cold!
[16:51]
Well Tempered Tuning explained by Bach: Well Tempered Tuning explained for everyone by the great master Johann Sebastian Bach himself!
[5:20]
Bach - Episode 15: Sebastian's still grieving for the loss of his youngest son and feels guilty about not being there for his wife when she needed him most. Still, he has to accompany his patron prince Leopold on a leisure trip to the mundane spa city of Karlsbad...

[19:53]
Bach - Episode 19: The Bach family arrives in Leipzig and soon realises that the luxury they were accustomed to is now but a distant memory. Sebastian doesn't get any time to adjust to the new situation as he has to take up his duties right away. The most important one is... being a teacher to 55 orphan boys.
[15:04]
