Brandenburg Concerto No. 5, Part 1 (Allegro)
Type: Interpretation
A slightly different musical project than usual, this is a rock arrangement of Johann Sebastian Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No. 5, Part 1 (Allegro) - BWV 1050.2. I can't take the credit for performing all this. I took a MIDI file version (details below) and then assigned the various tracks to different VST virtual instruments in Cubase 11. That in itself took a while. Then I added an original bass pedal part to the solo section towards the end. Next, came the hard work. I went through the whole thing section by section and added my own drum part, performed on an Alesis Crimson 2 electric drum kit, triggering Superior Drummer 2 samples. That was rather a labour of love, working through the piece and devising sympathetic parts which served the particular section, and frankly was the fun challenge in this project. Finally, I added the Roland CR-78 drum machine section. So, a fair bit of effort went into it, given it's ten minutes long, even though I can't take credit for performance of the main parts. That credit goes to Michel Rondeau.
