WTF Bach

Four Chances to Hear Bach Differently (MIDI and Musical ’Unbias’ Examples)


Listen Later

Last Episode WTF Bach explained how computers, using MIDI, could help us understand Bach in a unique way.


Here then, is a brief episode of four Bach MIDI files, played with very basic computer operations (quantized 16th notes, panning between speakers, mechanical slowing down and speeding up). 


It's likely you've never heard Bach in this way before. The question therefore is, 'Did you learn something?'
