Due to the nature of the song I’m putting the pieces together for, I had to go back into my classical days. Yes, I have a large period of time where I took the time to learn to play classical guitar. Good thing as it’s coming in handy with this cover I’m working on.
If you can figure out what song makes use of today’s selection then you’ll have advanced warning as to whom I’m covering. Yes, her song makes use of this fugue.
The Single of the Day today comes from an era long since gone. For those of us attempting to create the music of the future it makes real good sense to study the music of the past. I have a feeling though that the further along we get in the world and time, the more people there are creating music but the percentage of who have studied the past is quickly decreasing. That’s unfortunate.
Spend some time enjoying J. S. Bach’s Fugue in B Minor. It’s classical. It’s moving. It’s far from today’s ‘sound’ but it’s very relevant.
Go out and learn, then look inside for the sound that wants to come out.
