Too short!
Now i have heard quite some Bach music, thanks to Pianoteqenthusiast. To me, it sounds like a loop - it is not trivial, but it could go on forever and ever. Wondering if Bach invented generative music, i heard some joke that all music backtracks to Bach
Thank you, gasparka, for your interesting comments.
I think Bach had his ”generative” music, at that time, called counterpoint, a composition technique resulting in polyphony, music with many independently moving voices. As you have heard, Bach was the master at it :-)
And that ”all music backtracks to Bach” - I think many musicians have taken ideas from Bach (and other classic composers). I wonder how many times did Procol Harum listen to Bach’s Air before making A whiter shade of pale? The beginning of that piece take my thoughts to Air (and although the rest isn’t a copy, the Bach-feeling is there). Many orchestras have made rock/pop versions of classic music, Bach, Beethoven, Tjajkovskij etc. James Last made serie Classics up to date in 80’s. A fifth of Beethoven is as a
rockversion in film Saturday night fever 1977. It’s very nice impro there…..
I myself have taken much inspiration from Bach several times. One example is my piece ” How bach influenced me Modern Bach like” on youtube/this forum 11.06 2019 .
In the left hand I use only Grand Orgue Drawknob #2 Principal 8’. In right hand I combined some interesting stops using coupler #5 (Recit/Grand Orgue). To add the stops on one keyboard on another keyboard gives me the possibility to create ”new” interesting sounds, as here in the melody.
Johann Sebastian Bach made a lot of great music. I feel that this music decrease my blood pressure and I can concetrate better. Well, music has an individual influence, but it has therapeutic effects for all of us in some way. That’s what I have experienced.
Enjoy!
