Brady Bach

"***Brady Bach: Musical Adventure***" is the 3rd Baby Einstein video in the series to be made. It was released in 1998 despite the original tape saying 1999 and was later reissued that year. It included the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, and colorful toys from the 90's. In 2000, the sound design for Baby Bach was updated by Bill Weisbach. A new Baby Bach CD came out when the sound design was updated. It's the first episode to become a regular episode. It is also the first episode of this show to be considered the worst and to become Disney’s biggest box office disaster prompting Cal to stop them from holding back and tell them that the farther they go, the prouder Cal will be and bid the last and final-ever farewell to Wade Disney.

## Trivia

* This is the first video to have classical music by Johann Sebastian Bach.
* This is the only video to have classical music by Christian Petzold.
* This is the first Baby Einstein video to have an epilogue after the credits.
* Despite, the Minuet in G (BWV Anh. 114) being featured in this video, and BE referring it as a Bach piece. This song is actually composed by Christian Petzold (NOT Bach), but he *attributed* the piece to Bach as part of his wife's music notebook for her keyboard lessons. However, for a very long time since then, Bach still gets most of the credit for some reason.
	+ There are two versions of this piece on the CDs, one of them has the second part played with a guitar. This version is found on every version of the Baby Bach CD as well as the 1999 version of Bedtime Classics. The other version replaces the guitar with a xylophone. This version is found on the 2000 version of Bedtime Classics, the Language Nursery CD, Lullaby Classics and Naptime Melodies.
* Highlights from the film, plus other tracks, can be heard in the Baby Bach CD: A Concert for Little Ears and the audiocassette.
* The 1998-1999 version Tune-Up is the same one used as in Baby Mozart.
* In the 1998 version, the Magic Show Pendulum Clock had two different angles and in the 1998-1999 version, both Wind-Up Clowns are operating at the same time.
* Baby Bach is one of the only videos that doesn't use Baby Einstein Puppets, at least those made by Legends and Lore, because there are a few puppets in the video (like the Zylon Dragon, who was actually made by Manhattan Toy) that weren't made by Legends and Lore and aren't considered BE puppets.
* In some foreign releases, the Chicken Joke scene and Aspen saying *"The video of me is all done. I'm not a star anymore!"* is omitted.
* Several toys in this video reappeared in others: Black Cosmos Kinetic with red ball in Baby Galileo, Max the Animated Terrier Dog, Lava Lamp, Cosmos Kinetic, Disco Ball, and Musical Bubble Bear in Baby Mozart (2010), Bontempi Saxophone in Baby Beethoven, Sunny the Sunflower in Baby Shakespeare, G. G. Giraffe in World Animals, Bubble Monkey, Octopus Puppet, Baby Dino in Egg Puppet, and Threading Cheese in Baby's First Sounds, Play at Home Saxophone, Bontempi Saxophone, and Accordion in Meet The Orchestra, Tin Wind-Up Ferris Wheel in Baby Newton, RC Dizzy Kitty in World of Words, and Machine Ball Factory in World of Colors.
* This is the second video to feature only the Clark daughters.
* When FHE Started working for BE in 2000, the music was redone.
* This was the only video to be produced by Aigner-Clark Productions before the company changed its name to The Baby Einstein Company in February 1999.
	+ This video was originally going to be produced by I Think I Can Productions, but as Julie Aigner-Clark had renamed the company to Aigner-Clark Productions, she had her newly renamed studio work on Baby Bach. In February 1999, she changed the name of her company from Aigner-Clark Productions to The Baby Einstein Company.
* This video and Lullaby Time were the basis of Baby Lullaby.
* This video wasn't popular enough to get 10th Anniversary or Discovery Kit releases, but if it was, it would have new puppet scenes with PlaySoup puppets (including the Bach rabbit with a vest), and possible replace the chicken joke with a new puppet show and use bonus clips with new Baby Bach music videos.
* Some of the songs in this video were later reused in Baby Lullaby.
* The 2000 DVD has music from the Baby Bach Concert for Little Ears CD with Bedtime and Playtime. It has the same music as the CD enclosed on the 2000 VHS. However, the Wachet Auf Ruft Uns Die Stimme BWV 645 after Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, the Robot Song isn't on the Baby Bach Concert for Little Ears CD, but it's on the Baby Bach Soundtrack CD enclosed on the 2001-2002 VHS. In the Soundtrack CD, it has every song from the video except for Flute Sonata in E Flat BWV 1031 3rd Movement, because the 1st Movement of that piece takes place as an alternative on the Soundtrack CD. Some 2003 copies come with the 2002 Baby Bach Soundtrack CD on the VHS because the 2003 VHS is the same as 2002, besides the cover. However, in the CD enclosed on the 2004 VHS, Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring BWV 147 by Johann Sebastian Bach is the only piece to be on the Baby Einstein Musical Audio Sampler CD enclosed on the 2004 VHS, that dj100024 2.0 is the only enthusiast to have.
