Zetetic, I didn't remember Frederick's name either, but IIRC, these are two different stories, and the one with the quote happened a lot earlier (I've read a large book on Bach's life and work, but that was a long while ago, and not much is still with me).

However, I'm not sure.

Regarding the 'Musical Offering', of course, I completely agree with you about how lucky we are about that accident
