Toccata No1 in F# Minor BWV 910 Toccata No2 in C Minor BWV 911 Toccata No3 in D Major BWV 912 Toccata No4 in D Minor BWV 913 Toccata No5 in E Minor BWV 914 Toccata No6 in G Minor BWV 915 Toccata No7 in G Major BWV 916 By contrast JS Bach made the Fugue his own and we have created some examples presented on electronic musical instruments which aim bring out the excitement of the chase. They are early works where the composer was able to give free reign to his musical imagination and virtuosity. Toccata were originally composed for the Harpsichord and so it is not surprising that they respond well to a percussion treatment. For the Toccatas and Brandenburg Concertos on the other hand we have used combinations of Marimba and Steel Drums to create a really cool sound. For the Fugues we hark back to Wendy and have combined Mega Moog Synthesizers with Steel Drums which heighten the drama and emphasize the sunnier side of his work. Here we are offering a fresh approach based on combinations of some of the latest synthesizer instruments to bring fresh colours to the music and highlight the dazzling counterpoint. In the seventies Wendy Carlos used Moog synthesizers to produce albums of re- interpretations of some of this music. JS BACH ON DRUMS Original New World Instrumental arrangements Bach produced a huge volume of classical instrumental music for the most advanced musical instruments of his day and now we have produced some new transcriptions arranged on New World instruments in MP3 format.
