In 1723 a new cantor was appointed to the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, but surprisingly he was not the first choice for the job. We will get to know the music of Johann Kuhnau, who was cantor from 1701-1722, the music of the man who was at the top of the wish list, G.P. Telemann, and then the one who got the job. Johann Sebastian Bach
