He received early lessons from his father, and on 20 November 1663 was appointed organist of the Arnstadt castle chapel. Two years later he was invited by the Eisenach town council to apply for the post of organist at St Georg, and after an audition on 10 December 1665, he was appointed to that position and also to the post of harpsichordist in the court Kapelle of the Duke of Eisenach. He retained both positions until his death. In 1667, he married Maria Elisabeth Wiedemann and they had seven children, including four sons who became musicians: Johann Nicolaus Bach (1669-1753), Johann Christoph Bach Jr. (1676-1738), Johann Friedrich Bach (1682-1730), and Johann Michael Bach (1685-?). As a composer, . Bach described him as a “great and expressive composer“. He was probably the most important member of the family before Johann Sebastian Bach.
