Johann Sebastian Bach - II. Air on a G String

Perhaps one of Bach's most well known pieces, a good example of music used in advertisements.

KS2 idea: listen for subtle changes in sound of the melody using the bow and short sounds in the lower instruments.
Also useful to compare with Wagner's Ride of The Valkyries for contrasting tempo and dynamics.
