Actually the reason for Bach's music being so beautiful and finely resonating is largely because of the precision of the notes, precision and order that is rarely ever matched nowadays, with high levels of complexity. In truth, you CAN use scientific analysis to explain why it's so beautiful. The human ear finds certain wavelengths to be pleasing, especially for certain durations and at certain decibels. Bach and Mozart and Beethoven knew how to score their music into those sweet spots, not by a small margin, but by ALL the margins, filling the ranges of wavelengths that the human ear most enjoys to the fullest without contracting or dilating within or beyond them in a way that would degrade the experience.
There is a scientific explanation to everything, even creativity. It doesn't take away from the wonder and beauty that human imagination and creativity can manage; indeed when you look at just how specific and narrow the field of focus really must be, and how easily the margin of error can be tripped, you gain even MORE appreciation for the success and talent of skilled artists.
