      The dislikes are from fans of Metal. The difference between this piece and the other is the fact that this is beautiful and Metal is just noisy and hard just for being hard and nothing more, nothing artistic. Metal has always been an overrated genre. That style always belonged to resentful teenagers and to rebellious people who think they are special and who hate well-known and famous music; they think they are better than others for listening to Metal. That supposed music is just about screaming but not with passion but as if you were a demon or caveman gone crazy. It's also just about playing the guitar like crazy with force and speed, pounding the drums and in many cases writing violent or sexual lyrics (Death Metal or Black Metal). They believe that if musical artists do not play the electric guitar at the speed of light they are not good musicians, they don't get out of there. They hate anything that isn't Hard Rock or Heavy Metal. The funniest thing is that they criticize certain music for only being repetitive and Pop for being catchy, when they have bands like Metallica, among others, which at the beginning of their songs are usually very tiresome, they last more than a minute with the guitarist doing the same over and over again with his riffs, also in the solos. And yet they dare to see other music wrong when they in Metal do exactly the same thing of repeating a riff over and over again for more than a minute. It is hypocritical and incredible. Symphonic Metal is same shit except for some bands like Rhapsody, but majority of them are just generic music that isn't entertaining and less beautiful. The music of Electric Light Orchestra is way better than all the symphonic metal bands together. For me, any music like the following will always be better than Metal, 'cause they convey better, more positive messages: Folk, Country, Pop, Rock, Jazz, Blues, Classical. Also these genres are also for adults and many times suitable for all audiences, because Hard Rock and Heavy Metal have always been and will always be an inmature genre for adolescents, who believe they are more cool than everyone else just for listen to harder music.

      It is insane to think about, isn't it?
      While I hope that I am mistaken, I unfortunately doubt that our current modernized world could ever allow for someone like Bach to ever exist again. It is simply no longer possible for a person to put their entire life's focus on one subject (and a "worthless" art-form at that). The pressure and expectation to follow the set path of elementary-school, middle-school, high-school, college, getting a well paid job, etc. just doesn't allow for such passion in music to form.
      It's a tragedy, but the price we have to pay for things like Computers and RUclips.

    • @francis7336
      @francis7336 Год назад +193

      From today's standpoint it does sound impressive and unimaginable, but the people back then lead different lives. If you look at Bach's family tree, practically everyone was a musician. Back then, you probably already knew from a young age what you would end up doing bc there were fewer opportunities, school was expensive and so I imagine the parents or close relatives would teach their children what they knew. You didn't have to go to school all day every day for twelve years, and you had to spend your time in some way, so why not practice early on what would probably be your future job? I don't think it's surprising that artists in any field were practically masters of their craft at what we would consider a very young age. Sure, what are we doing with our lives at 22? At that point, Bach had probably been playing the organ for over 15 years nearly every day. He was bound to be good at it at 22
      (btw, those are mostly my assumptions and i'm not claiming anything as a fact haha)

      @@NoobsDeSroobs Well, according to historical sources, Bach was feared amongst pipe organ master builders (Orgelbaumeister). There are many reports of his contemporaries, that he often made the master builders sweat like apprentices:
      During his infamous paid pipe organ tests which he did as part of giving an expert opinion on a pipe organ, particularly when it was a commissioning/inauguration test, he pushed the instrument to its absolute limits, doing things nobody would dare.
      His son Carl Philipp Emanuel noted: *The father laughed merrily yet insidiously, and said for fun: "Above all things I must learn whether the organ has got good lungs!" - and to explore this the father pulled on [drew] all sounding registers [stops] and started to play as polyphonically as possible ...and the organ master builders stood in shock and turned pale, but then they heared an effect which left them astonished and deeply impressed.*
      Bach was known for his great ability to take a simple melody and quickly improvise it on organ into 4 voices or even 8 voices. He made every organ he tested ache. :-)

      When I was a young teen the church our youth club was attached to had an organ. Our organist was called Ray. He was in the church practicing. I didn't know what this piece was called. But sang a little to him. Ray understood and played it for me, he didn't hold back, I then understood what 'all the stops out' ment. He played with such passion and lost himself in the moment. Sadly I head Ray had passed, but he left me with this enduring memory for which I am eternally grateful.

I went over there to do a story about it for the local paper. I arrived way too early and it was just this lady and myself and I asked her if she could play this for me. And boy, did she. I still get emotional just thinking about sitting in that old church having this song played just for me. It's so very different in person when it rattles your bones.

      I can tell you this: not only was the entire building designed from the ground up as an acoustic temple, every cornice, every column and every arch designed to carry and amplify the sound frequencies of these amazing analogical air organs, but the organ was built within the architecture of the building with careful mathematic, energetic and sound frequency calculations so advanced that we cannot replicate today in our new cycle.
      These buildings were built by the previous cycle of people who were living in a golden age of technological and spiritual inlightenment.

But that also kind of changes the music from instrument to instrument as no same instrument can ever sound same unless its digital.

      That is a myth at best. The exact origins of the song are unknown with a ±25 year estimation.
      The most likely estimates date it to during his time in Weimar (1708) or later, at which point he was a proper musician/composer.
      You might be thinking of his other works, some of which were also named "Toccata and fugue", with minor differences in the titles.

    Try to imagine being a destitute beet farmer in 1700. All of your life you hear only the birds in the sky, the sounds of hammers on wood and iron, and shovels digging in fields. The closest thing to music you get is a rowdy chorus once or twice a month at the local commons, more often during a harvest.
    At some point during your simple life, you have occasion to travel to a great city with a grand cathedral. It is the largest building you've ever seen, adorned by previously unimaginable wealth and splendor. It is God's house. And there is music. It is a haunting, terrible melody that fills your chest with something that you cannot describe.
    The sound is so loud that it simply can't be real. The pipe organ creating the noise is a device that you have heard stories about, but it is more impressive than you could ever guess. It is a colossus, a sparkling gilded tribute to God and truly must be the greatest creation of man.
    What a world we live in.

    The final chord progression is beyond amazing from a musical standpoint, it stretches your soul string and makes your belly and hearth sink because how powerful it is, also the deviation from the resolution adding a 6th major chords gives so much more intensity and sombreness to the final chords which is tragic and glorious but peaceful in the same way.
