  • This is an incredibly epic rendition and keep in mind that this is all Bach. It reminds me of progressive metal or something. Subscribe if you want to hear more of these!

    Based on his love for the organ my guess is Bach would have loved modern synthesizers.

      Totally agree, his music seems very suited to synthesiser arrangements, and I think his influence is more prominent in electronica (Eno, Aphex Twin, Oneohtrix etc) than you hear in standard pop. Wendy Carlos probably has much to do with this.

    This is called transcription. Re-arranging an original work for other instruments the composer intended for. It breathes new life into many of Bach's works!

      Bach himself did the same with a few of Vivaldi's works and some others! I'm certain he would have at least been curious of the possibilities!

    I like this, it's reminiscent of Carlos' percussive timbres from SOB-2000. Regardless of the comments criticizing the work as "Romantic," so much of the Master's work is subject to interpretation regarding tempo - the way a jazz performer "improvises" throughout a performance. Keep up the good work! :)

    • @hoon_sol

      Anyone classifying this work as even remotely "romantic" simply have zero idea what they're talking about, because there's nothing even resembling anything "romantic" about it. This is as baroque as they come.

    around the year 1969 there was a great deal of interest in a new musical instrument devised by a music geek named Moog; his keyboard was known as the synthesiser and even the early version was stunningly innovative, so much that The Beatles got one and used it in the Abbey Road sessions. Other notorious musicians of that time were Rick Wakeman (The 6 wives of Henry viii) and Keith Emerson (EL&P). The electronic version of Bach's music is from that era as well.

    • @TerribleTadpole
      @TerribleTadpole 6 лет назад +2

      Carlos actually trialled the Moog's synthesizer and it was at her suggestion that Moog added a pressure-sensitive expressive keyboard. This innovation certainly contributed substantially to the broad and enduring success of the instrument.

    Adding the bells or chimes to the higher end adds interest and broadens the textures and harmonics. The is not always the case with synth renditions. The pipe organ does presents these over-tunes with air passing over the pipes, low register of the pedal, an intended orchestra-like instrument. Can bringing in these components which yields contrast and richness be achieved on a synth?
    Another challenge which may be overlooked by the listener, is selecting or crafting a sound. Generally musicians do not have the patents, desire nor aptitude to create sound patches. Thumbs up.

I congratulate you in the effort that u have taken to make such music available in a form that can help listeners appreciate the complexity and mind blowing structure of Bach's pieces ... The best part of this is that I can hear the voices so clearly and distinctly in the fugue section which is because the instruments the voices represent have been selected with a lot of thinking ...

      For the music of Bach, nothing can really beat fully automated playing, such as with a computer. The music itself is simply so awesome that humans really just muck it up, no matter how "great" they are at playing; they're still imperfect, and the music of Bach thrives when presented purely perfect.

    Mr. SecondAgeOfReason, I commend you for this fine work. It’s about time that I hear an uncorrupted transcription of Bach played on clear and reasonable instruments. Hopefully some people, pop culture and others in this case, may perhaps listen without getting board from now on (generally from a question of instrument and irrational quick placed judgements) and keep the great quality of Bach’s melodies and harmonies, Bach would have been proud.

    I liked the music and the imagery used as it was a type of Baroque art on steroids. The sound set used was also interesting and using a chime or bell type of sound is bold because it has a minor third harmonic making them difficult to harmonies, but here you have done this sound tastefully.

    I shall have to be honest here. There are definitely far worse transcriptions of Bach out there, but this one definitely needs some work. There is certainly something I like about the instruments you chose, but they do not seem to work well with long, sustained notes, which is sadly not very good for a piece such as this. My main concern, however, is that it sounded completely mechanical. Don't get me wrong, I know this is Bach and not a romantic piece, and I think playing Bach in a totally romantic style ruins it completely, but you should at least try to add some sense of phrasing to it rather than just make it sound like it's just playing one note after another. I'm not sure about the capabilities of the program you used, but I've seen Mario Paint videos and even 8-bit music that did better in this regard. If you made the instrument yourself, then I congratulate you, but you should do something a bit more than simply transcribe the sheet music onto the computer if you want to get a better arrangement. Also, the tempo could be faster, but that is a more minor concern.
