Toccata & Fugue In D Minor - Keyboard Unleashed

For Something completely different. Famous Music By Bach originally for Pipe Organ. Then released by Sky as a modern electric guitar instrumental. (A bit of the organ part was used in the film "Pirates of the Caribbean".) This starts off in pipe organ mode then goes on to the mod version... My arrangement. This is played in real time.. No sequencing here. Prefer to do the Diminished Chord slower than normal to extend the tension & the dramatic climax. . Also creates anticipation for the resolution to D minor !!! The Organ part requires correct "Phrasing" to make it stand out and give it the wow factor. For those interested; * sounds stored in panel memory for quick changes. *Bass pattern & extra accompaniment triggered by the left hand using the arpeggiator * retro synth used for rhythmic effects. * layered after touch effect for delayed slow strings. In the other videos, the Tehnics keyboard acted as a supporting role for accompaniment.. here it is featured to show its outstanding versatility & quality of sound. Sadly Technics Japan decided to discontinue production of Technics keyboards. * I do not take claim to any of the original materials used in this video.
