Blast from the past!

I first got this back in the days of vinyl. I played it and played it and loved it. I wore out one track: Minuet in G Major because I was supposed to play it for a recital and was struggling. I never achieved the speed or precision of this recording, but it helped me with understanding the tempo.
Now I have this CD and all the beauty and clarity has returned. My heart soars with joy when I listen to this beautiful collection. I love the playfulness in Musette in D Major and Marche in D Major. I love the placidity in Sheep May Safely Graze. Mostly I am happy that I can play this again and enjoy it.
If you enjoy Bach and have never heard this recording, I urge you to try it.

I was a kid when Wendy Carlos hit upon the idea of using the polyphony of Bach as a means of showing off the new Moog synthesizer. My parents had this album and its predecessor. (Two others were released as well: "The Well-Tempered Synthesizer" and "Switched-On Brandenburgs", thus completing the six Brandenburg concertos.) This CD has the entire album, in pristine digital quality - plus a little extra at the end: the "Little Fugue" in G-minor.

Exceptionnel document, la suite du premier
Reviewed in France on July 6, 2015
Bien sûr, certain dirons, ce n'est que de l'interprétation du déjà très joué Johann Sebastian Bach, pourtant ici pour la "seconde" fois il est joué de façon magistral sur un Synthétiseur Moog, connu pour sa puissante et chaude sonorité dans le milieu technique. D'autre prône une brillante prouesse et performance technique, oui aussi sans parler de la virtuosité nécessaire pour interpréter ces partitions. Pas seulement car avec peut d'indication dynamique que l'on trouve sur la musique de Bach, il reste pas mal à l'interprête pour mettre en évidence la beauté de l'oeuvre, des contraste, de la vélocité, des nuances qui ont aussi été intégré à cet album qui sonne encore plus abouti que le premier. La fameuse "Badinerie" est étourdissante d'espièglerie, le 5eme Brandebourgeois, somptueux! W.Carlos fait simplement partie des pionniers de la musique appliqué aux Synthétiseurs, d'autre ont mieux réussi sur le versant expérimental. Une autre vision de Bach et des sons à redécouvrir.

I had to get it

I have Switched on Bach I as an LP and because of the cost of the re-released CD's I resisted purchasing them for quite a long time but in the end, I thought if I want to hear them again I would just have to bite the bullet. In the end I bought Switched on Bach I and II and also The Well-Tempered Synthesiser and they are as good as ever, and to me it is the 'right' way to listen to Bach. I will just try to forget how much they cost!!

チープなモーグシンセの音が癒し系サウンドとして再評価される日が
Reviewed in Japan on January 8, 2007
スイッチオンバッハの第2弾アルバム、僕は95年ごろに中古盤でこのアルバムを購入し、A面には何も感じなかったが、B面の「ブランデンブルグ交響曲第5番」のすばらしさに感動し、このアルバムがきっかけで本家オーケストラバージョンの「ブランデンブルグ交響曲」を購入した。僕にとってはバッハの作品にハマる切っ掛けになった記念すべき作品である。僕のようにスイッチオンバッハからクラシックに目覚めるという人間は珍しいと思われるかもしれないが、B面を全て占めるこの曲のモーグシンセは本来無機質な音で、叙情性や潤いあるサウンドとは無縁な音だと思っていたのだが、この曲の第2部に関しては涙腺を強く刺激し、感動的な仕上がりになっている。特にフルートやリュートのような高音のシンセ音に「ポン」「ポン」というベース音の寂しいアンサンブルが絶妙で、このパートを再現させるために本作を発表したのではないかと勘ぐるくらいに上手く仕上げられている。また、たまに現れる早弾き連打やエコーの強弱による空間的な幅の広げかたなど、この人でなければできないような世界が構成されている。日本人のフォロワーとして富田勲などが登場したが、その後の喜多郎やYMO、クラフトワークなどの出現を考えるとポップミュージック界に与えた影響は大きい。現在の停滞する音楽業界の状況を考えるとこの人のような革新的な人材の出現が求められると思う。このアルバムがリリースされた当時の反響はどうだったのだろう?年配の人からはあまりに革新的な内容を受け入れられず「あんなのは音楽じゃない」と罵られたのではないだろうか?交響楽団の関係者からも「あんなのはおもちゃの音楽」と言われたのかもしれない。今の子供に聞かせたらきっと「ゲームの音みたい」と言われそうな気がする。実際に前半にの小曲を聞くとそんな感じに聞こえる曲もある。21世紀の今だからこそ、再評価されることを期待したい。
