Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565 by J.S. Bach on the Baloran The River synthesizer
Published on May 1, 2019 Sean Christopher Evoking Emotion with Synthesizers
"This piece is dedicated to my father, Gary Dockery (1942 - 2019) who introduced me to Bach and other great classical music artists. Thank you dad, and I love you.
Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565 is a piece of organ music written, according to its oldest extant sources, by Johann Sebastian Bach. The piece opens with a toccata section, followed by a fugue that ends in a coda. It is one of the most famous works in the organ repertoire.
I recreated Bach's genius using a Baloran the River synth which was multitracked to Steinberg's Cubase 10 Pro. The reverb is from Exponential Audio’s awesome R4 reverb plugin. I'm estimating that I spent close to 100 hours putting this together....and in the end I believe that it was worth every single minute. Working on Bach pieces is very humbling. My God that man was a genius!"

The way everyone keeps writing "Baloran The River" only reminds me of the Japanese anime Read Or Die (R.O.D.) character whom every keeps calling The Paper. Always with the The.
