Musical composition can refer to an original piece of music, the structure of a musical piece, or the process of creating a new piece of music. People who practice composition are called composers.
Although today composition is considered to consist of the manipulation of each aspect of music (harmony, melody, form, rhythm, and timbre), according to Jean-Benjamin de Laborde (1780, 2:12):

Compositions comprise musical elements, which vary widely from person to person and between cultures. Improvisation is the act of composing musical elements spontaneously during the performance.

This is a discussion on Bach's method of musical composition. Classical music isn't just another style, or "period" of music.

Just to be provocative, compare what you hear in this preliminary discussion to the "philosophers" of modern composition, like Theodore Adorno, who wrote in "The Philosophy of Modern Music", "What radical music perceives is the untransfigured suffering of man.... The seismographic registration of traumatic shock becomes, at the same time, the technical structural law of music. It forbid...
