@@OlavSchneider What do you mean "hire Metallica"? They doesn't even like classical Music.....i prefer listen to 70's Prog rock bands like Yes, ELP, VDGG, Genesis, King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Mike Oldfield, Camel, Ekseption, Focus, Pink Floyd, Triumvirat, Frank Zappa.
I love hearing the old classics reimagined for modern times! Just proves the longevity of the old masters and how much their music stills means to us today!
When at college 1968 my guitar instructor took me to Cathedrals where we listened to organ recitals - I have never been the same since - Thank you James
I have spent some 60+ years adoring this piece of music, Whilst there have been many interpretations of the music, from absolutely classical to heavy rock, with electric guitars, I am yet to find a version that I do not adore.. I do wish that devotees of classical music would open their minds to modern interpretations. Remember, many renditions of classical music were scoffed at , at the time they were performed, Also remember that "Wellington's Victory", by Beethoven , was written to be played on a machine!!!!!
Thanks Michael...there's a lot more to come . if you are a vinyl lover try 'Hammer of The Gods' our latest album from Rock Review Records featuring group, orchestra and crazy virtuoso viola solos !😀 Also on CD
From Walt Disney’s “Fantasia” (Leopold Stokowski and the Philadelphia Orchestra, 1940)and Walt Disney’s “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea” (1954). Captain Nemo’s organ aboard the Nautilus. Fun fact: The original organ used in the movie and later displayed in a walk-through exhibit at Disneyland, was eventually repurposed as the organ in the ballroom scene of Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion.
That version found its way onto Sky's second self-titled album, and just this week I discovered a video they did for Top of the Pops in 1980. Enjoy. th-cam.com/video/QgbgUrp1a70/w-d-xo.html
I have a list of five songs that I would be able to listen to if all other music disappeared forever. This was the second song I added to that list 45 years ago. A masterful performance! KUDOS!
@@lorirommel519 Lorena McKennit’s All Souls Night, Emerson Lake and Palmer’s C’est la vie, House of the Rising Sun by Dolly Parton, The Animals or Jimi Hendrix (instrumental), Tina Turner’s Golden Eye. Honorable mention would be The WHO’s Eminence Front. I tend to like songs that are high energy, tell a story or brings an emotional response to me.
Thanks Fabiola . Please spread the word as widely as possible ...and we'll do more...all and any requests for classics awaiting the same SINFӦNICCA treatment...Ride of The Valkeyrie ????? Your suggestions welcome
Hi James , as non sentient entities, although their role is satirical the Zombies do not qualify as performers in accordance with the stautory provisions of Part II of the Copyryght Designa and Patents Act (1988) . Similarly the choreography and performance of their their line dancing routine is exempt from the act which leaves more loot to be gobbled up by the living! Thanks for listening and commenting.😀
Thanks for taking the time Simon. Isn't music an amazing thing. We are just finishing a suite of Uriah heep classic and July Morning sets anew standard for us.
It is very hard to Bach justice on anything other than the instrument his music was written for. However, if Bach had to hear this he would be thinking of a million more possibilities for bending multiple scales to his will. Thanks for showing my favourite composer some love!
Unbelievable! This is for far the most incredible and beautiful version of toccata e fuga by Bach that I never heard in my life! Simply astonishing! I'm overwhelmed by happiness when I hear it! Great great job! Well done! ♥️
No hay palabras para describir esta maravilla de trabajo. Felicitaciones a todos. El violin alucinante. Da gusto escuchar esta interpretacion. Gracias.🤘
WOW. you actually are using all the Elements in T& F in Dm and making an interesting version with some recombinations, of the Toccata with the Fugue, and a couple of modulations not in the original ! Very well done, if one likes this idiom, & even well done musically in terms of harmonic inventiveness, and skillfully blended parts.
Thanks Michael...expressed in er fruitier language than most...please subscribe and keep swinging by. We hope to be able to form a collective where we all decide which band or artist is next for the Sinfonnica treatment!
As an ex-rocker (bass guitarist) and classical music lover, I liked that!! I feel that if Bach could hear and see that being played, he would not be able to wait to see what sounds he could produce of that array of instruments. Not for the purists, but fortunately, I am not a purist! Love it!
Hi Craig...our version has been described as 'Sky on steroids'I don't know if that is a compliment !!! I'm not sure you can compare the two as ours is more avariation on a theme. However we really appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment. Please subscribe and keep rocking!
То что создал И.С. Бах очень годится для рок-осмысления и для музыкальных изысканий, а так же новых прочтений. Считаю, что многие через рок придя к Баху, пришли к классической музыке. И я в том числе. Токката Баха - шедевр на все времена.
Si Bach se despertara de su tumba y viera como 300 años despues su musica sigue vigente,y cuantas versiones hay de su famosa Tocata y Fuga,no lo podria,creer y como a,tantos rockeros les fascina su musica,tanto como a mi,saludos
Wow. Just wow. That was magnificent! Beautiful. Haunting. Achingly deep. A wonderful blend. A tribute, no, an honor to the original toccata e fuga. I have loved this song since I first heard it played on a theatre organ, which was accompanying a showing of the original Lon Chaney 'Phantom of the Opera', in a loooooooong-ago high school drama class. Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! Well-done, all. Thanx so very very much for sharing! (edit bc my stupidphone cannot spell properly 🙄 )
@@echoecho3108 Self priase is no praise...but I think 'Since I've been Loving You' from Hammer of The Gods with Ben Payen on Viola and Roz Smith on lead vocal is one of our finest achievemnts...but then I just received the mix for July Morning ...recorded in Palma Music Studios which begins with the Gregorian chant and just gets better!!!!!!!! Didn't we produce some great music in the seventies?
Vanessa Mae, British/Singaporean violinist did this in violin with the added hard rock elements and backing instruments on her Violin Player album in 1995.....the OG violin diva.
Fantastic playing the video constantly weirdly enough the zombies doing their thing works for me.The violin fits in perfectly with the other metal instruments
If you dig this I can highly recommend Kaipa's "Sattyg" from 2014. Lots of excellent synth work, violin, recorders, vocal hamonies and one of the best guitar players Sweden has to offer, Per Nilsson.
![Mozart - Metallica (Symphony No. 40 - Enter Sandman : MOZART HEROES [OFFICIAL VIDEO]](/img/n.gif)
Bach is the father of Metal.
They should of hired Metallica for this piece
I concur with your factual accuracy of that assessment!🤘JSB🤘
And Wagner the godfather
Yes he is .

72 years old a lifelong Bach fan. Wonderful to hear this. Bach is for the ages.
68 this month right along with you. Good music is indeed ageless and this is a very good version.
Really, nothing can compete with a fully prepared cathedral pipe organ.
These guys give it a good go!
@@lesleyjulian9446 And they got my vote, even tho' I consider myself a purist!
I agree with that 💯 👍
I agree, I’ve heard this played on a full pipe organ in a big Cathedral but have to admit that this version is just as awesome!
My thoughts exactly, I was going to comment 'or you could just play it on a big ass organ in a cathedral and it will make the floor and walls shake.'
I love hearing the old classics reimagined for modern times! Just proves the longevity of the old masters and how much their music stills means to us today!

Thanks Dinsdale ...watch out for those coffee tables!... Also please check out July Morning and Return to Fantasy from the next Sinfonicca album😀

Listened to the CD last night. What is the source music for track 2 A Witches' Sabbat? It sounds familiar.
Thanks Tony, keep tuning in for more ...we are working on a series of variations on the Toccata and Fugue in Dm...some crazy stuff on its way!😀
This blending of the classic and modern is so breathtaking
That makes this all worthwhile. Thanks for taking the time.
Thanks John ...that's why we do this . These guys were amazing !
Bach would have loved this. Bravo!
The most magnicficant Cover of this Masterpiece i ever heard!
Not to hard, not to fast, exactly timed and played!
