Booa 👏👏👏

Obrigado

Thank you! I am not as familiar with Bach's opus as I could be, and this helps identify the individual works in a way that is useful. Time stamps are a good thing.

@@MizzWGGrrrl You've come to the right place then. :) All of Bach's best known works are available on KZfaq, and most of the rest as well. The Netherlands Bach Society produces some of the very best modern recordings, but there are countless others as well. Brilliant Classics makes a boxed set of Bach's complete works on CD at an affordable price. We are blessed to live in a time in which his work is so accessible. I hope you will continue to discover and rediscover it to the full extent of your interest, and not only the music itself, but the God that Bach wrote to glorify. Soli Deo Gloria!

"Thanks!" to V. Pereira, H. Backhaus, .. J.S. Bach, .. .. T. Edison, .. .. .. .. .. ..

I had a music teacher in 6th grade who did the same with our class. Mr Hollenbeck. GREAT guy! And then he took us on a class trip to the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia where they were doing actual live demonstrations of a full modular Moog - I was mesmerized and awestruck....and a hardcore lover of synthesis, AND Bach, from that moment on.

"Switched on Bach" was Walter Carlos!

@@DavidA-ps1qr same person

@@robertpfeiffer8836 Not really, and you know it.

@@DavidA-ps1qr I would venture to guess that "her" birth certificate still says Walter.

And for all ages. :^)

God makes you believe in Him... hence JSB predicated his compositions with JJ it is Latin for 'Jesus juva' - Jesus Help, and on completion JSB penned down SDG- that is the only way to go in life❤

@@passingthruuu Amen!

I have to agree it's truly beautiful

@@TB-wvvvw Why?

Never forget that Bach, though a devout Christian, had a hot temper (which he controlled) and wore a sword (which he was a couple of times tempted to draw) ! The man was a volcano of creative passion. Not surprising that he had 14 children.

I think that Bach is "en avance" also for our temps. It never ends to fascinate

Excelentes tus comentarios.

personne n'a joué, c'est transcrit et joué par MAO

He might even be the first one to play the synthesizer!!

@@josephsimantov5343 For classical compositions, yes, most likely! He'd have had blast with vocoders too! Seriously, though, I suspect he would have taken the fugue (building one voice on another, sharing themes across parts, etc.) concept to new heights. A reality of the time was that a composer was constrained by performance technology: amazing though the pipe organ is, there's only so much you can do with eight fingers, two thumbs, and two feet. With modern tools he could have extended that concept further, perhaps to symphonic proportions (though more isn't necessarily better). Carlos addressed performance constraints by using voicing (in contrast to Henning, who kept it comfortable and very agreeably simple), and I continue to enjoy her work decades five decades after I first heard her work.

Technically, classical "performance". The "composition" is actually over 300 yrs old. But yes, I agree with your point!

This is baroque music, not classical.

@@hoon_sol ​ Perhaps better for us all to re-define "The Galant Period" as referring to the period of written Western music from +-1720 thru (not just +-1770 but even all the way to include) +- the first 1/4 of the 1800's; this would be so that we don't have to continue referring to that whole period as "The Classical Period", because by-now the term "classical" has somehow come to be generally used to refer to literally all more time-honored musical works & styles (of both East & West) \ Even tho that period included the mostly-brief "Sturm & Drang" movement (ca. the 1770's) which rebelled against its ideals (ideals at that time termed 'neo-classical', referring to those of the ancient Greco-Roman style of the more-affluent which was then being for the first time widely publicized & newly emulated (esp. by those more affluent) thru-out the West { & so-termed because the Roman term 'class' referred to a stratum of culture based on such ideals } ), ideals of more emotional restraint & balance, of mostly happier emotions expressed, & all via more simplicity [usually just one predominant melody, & less-daring modulations] (contrasting with the just-earlier "Baroque" period's frequent polyphony & its wider variations in many aspects esp. modulation) -- yet also in just as much perfectionism if not more -- still, since "merely having fun" (even if 'perfectionistically') is the root-meaning of cognates of "gallant", then, [again,] perhaps the period's easiest re-terming would be via the first-proposed mere extension of the duration of the currently-defined "Galant Period" ? \\

@@waking-tokindness5952: Absolutely pointless and meaningless. There's nothing "perfectionist" about the garbage that succeeded Bach.

@@hoon_sol Evidently, e.g. Mozart's last two or three symphonies ( among actually many other such e.g.'s ) have yet to be either heard or analyzed by all here \\

You are right about that - thank you!

The creator of baroque-era fugue as we know it is Pachelbel.

Non, ce n'est pas du "re-recording". C'est simplement le jeu de main gauche main droite.

The lack of velocity ups and downs suggests that MIDI files were taken and run through a VST synth.-

Sure, but that's like saying Shakespeare would rather have his plays in an old, rennaissance theater. It might be sacrelige to many traditionalists, but how is it that his mastery of counterpoint can be demonstrated after nearly 300 years on any instrument, in any tuning system, and in nearly any context? Also, much of what Bach "wanted" is still a mystery. On most of his scores, he provides no tempo indication, no tuning system, and no improvisational indication. And as long as they weren't Erik Satie, the composer likely wouldn't have condemned most arrangements made by other arrangers. It's difficult to say what Bach would've thought about this arrangement of his fugues, but the opinion of which the composer gives about how their pieces should be thought about isn't the most important aspect of music, but it is rather the artistry in which performers play them (which was a concept highly regarded in the rennaissance). TL;DR: It doesn't always matter how the composer regards their piece, but more the artistry in which it is brought to life.
