The five pieces arranged from Bach originals are: "Regret?" from "The Old Year Has Now Passed Away"; "Rise Up in the Morning" from "Sleepers Wake"; "Precious Joy" from "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring"; "Don't Stop This Train" from a selection in "Klavierbüchlein für Wilhelm Friedemann Bach"; and "Tears from the Children" from the Prelude 8 in E-flat minor from Book I of the "The Well-Tempered Clavier"). For the four blues pieces, the "spelling" of the titles follows the system Bach and his German contemporaries used, in which the letter B indicates B-flat, and the letter H is B-natural. So, the four blues pieces that spell the name B-A-C-H are in the keys of B-flat (major), A (minor), C (minor) and B (major). ReceptionThe Allmusic review stated "This album has an interesting concept, alternating four original blues with five adaptations of melodies [sic] from classical works by Bach. The Modern Jazz Quartet had long been quite adept in both areas, and despite a certain lack of variety on this set (alternating back and forth between the two styles somewhat predictably), the music is largely enjoyable".[3] Track listingAll compositions by John Lewis except as indicated
