Bach Prelude 1 in C Major // Moog Matriarch


video upload by Wave Dash Magazine

"One of the most recognizable pieces written by Bach, performed on an analog synthesizer. The first piece in The Well-Tempered Clavier is a popular choice for kids and beginners, and due to its arpeggiated nature, I thought it would be fun to perform on a mono synth. Technically the song should be performed with the lowest two notes held for the duration of the arpeggio, but I opted to use the built-in delay to achieve a similar effect.

I found it surprisingly difficult to create an appropriate patch for this piece. Ultimately I went the route of simplicity, leaning on the quality of the raw tone of the Matriarch and focusing entirely on creating immersive, dreamlike dynamics via expression pedal and patch cables."
