Bach was still stuck willingly in his Baroque ways , not wanting to move forward in terms of stylefirst , moving forward in this case was actually moving backwards , towards simpler homophony and far less ornamentation . I doubt his sons specially Wilhelm and Emanuel were willing to do it too , but philosophers and sovereigns demanded this new lighter style , so they had to back off from everything they learned from their father and explore other ways to use that technical prowess . I do think Bach would feel rather proud at Beethoven ' s more complex fugal moments at least . <| sep |> Some people find it easier from a time invested perspective to stroll into their local CVS rather than make the trip to Simon regularly . Yes , Simon VGCs are cheapest at $ 3 . 95 each , but for only an extra $ 1 card it might make more sense for convenience .
