Best viewed in HD, looks almost like Guitar Hero Orchestra version … Made with “The Music Animation Machine“….

  1. Bach! Beethoven. Ptheeew.

    This is better…

  2. Would be cool if they could encode amplitude into the display as well. Perhaps with color or shade.

  3. @redcrate

    I liked the Beethoven sample as I could follow the different sections of the orchestra and watch visually how they interplay.

    Your Bach Tocata example is particularly interesting. I can watch it and see my organ player friend Will running three keyboards, footpedals and stops simultaneously with the visual. Puts all that activity into a whole different perspective to help understand what’s going on there.

    Neat stuff!

  4. Where was this when I (non-musician music lover) was really trying to HEAR classical music thirty years ago???

  5. I like seeing this visualization with a fugue

    I was introduced to fugues by the book ‘Godel, Escher, Bach’ (like a lot of geeks I suspect) but I never really got it until I watched these visualizations.

  6. Would love to have this in a framed screen of moving art over my fireplace, and have it go through a playlist each day, programmed according to the scene I want, with the room lights included in the scene setup. :^D

    Oh be kind to your woodland friends, for a duck may be somebody’s mother!

    Sillyness remembered from childhood sung to “The Stars and Stripes”.

  8. I think I just learnt more about music watching those clips than I have in years of playing. 🙂
