Toccata and Fugue
Titled after J.S. Bach's most famous piece for pipe organ. I was inspired to do this particular piece after accidentally coming across a very powerful You Tube video of a performance of "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" by a unique orchestra. "Symphonity". Said orchestra, is comprised of 12 electric guitarists and two bass players only. They cover classical pieces, including "The William Tell Overture" and the overture to "The Barber of Seville". But this performance of the Bach organ piece is particularly suited to the dynamics and timbral qualities of a guitar orchestra. Truly a very impressive thing to witness.
