In music, the BACH motif is a succession of notes important or characteristic to a piece, which consists of the notes B♭, A, C, B♮, forming a cruciform melody: In German musical nomenclature, in which the note B natural is named H and the B-flat named B, it forms Johann Sebastian Bach's family name. One of the most frequently occurring examples of a musical cryptogram, the motif has been used by countless composers, especially after the Bach Revival in the first half of the 19th century.
