Summary/Abstract: Gheorghe Neaga is a remarkable Moldovan composer of the second half of the 20th century. His creation is marked by a free use of musical language, various composi-tional techniques used not as an end in itself, but as one of essential terms for creation of original artistic concepts. „Bach for all times” is one of his composition for two pianos written in 2003 during the last years of his life that he lived in America.
