Bach: "14 Canons" visualization

[@ツィンパンズィー]

この曲は単に基本の音型が反転したり伸びたり縮んだりしてることぐらいにしか気づかずに聴いてたんだけど 実はこんなに複雑なことをしてたんだと知った時には驚愕した。さらに聴き心地も良いんだからバッハ凄すぎる。 それを視覚的にわかりやすくしたこの動画も素晴らしいです。

Thanks for your encouraging comments!

[@bargledargle7941]

My favorite is canon 11 ( 4:38 ) This video is excellent, very clear with the visualization. One thing that could be nice is colors so I know which voice is which. But just the points alone allow us to see the mirrors and reflections so it's still useful and great job too.

[@smalldotsensemble2058]

Thank you so much! I am apparently not very good at using color.

[@JohnLeonardMusic]

Incredible visualization! Never seen it like this. Only tragedy is that the voices weren't color-coded

[@OmnipresentPotato]

Amazing video! Loved the little factoid at the end, never noticed that Bach's number was also the number of canons in this piece.

[@smalldotsensemble2058]

Thank you for the comment!

What a mindblowing fact B2 + A1 + C3 + H8 = 14 Canons

カノンの構造がわかりやすくてすごく良いです！

コメント、ありがとうございます。音楽の構造をうまく視覚化できればいいなと思って作っているので、うれしいです。

Magnifique montage! Sublime génie!

Merci beaucoup. J'aimerais faire les autres œuvres de Bach.

The realization of canon 7 is different from usual

[@smalldotsensemble2058]

Wow, thanks for pointing out. That's another 7th canon in spite of the misalignment.

@@smalldotsensemble2058 You're welcome! I was wondering for long time why Bach chose to write exactly 14 cannons, you gave me the answer!

I also noticed how each of the dual melodies were symetrical from the side

canon 9 sounds strange?

[@smalldotsensemble2058]

Is there something wrong?

[@pianoplayer1262]

​@@smalldotsensemble2058 The canon starts at 3:47 . The visualization seems right (and beautiful!), but the audio sounds different in many places: - the 9-11th notes (first 3 notes of the second measure) should outline a dominant chord and not a I-6/4 chord (lower the 10th note by a half step and lower the 11th note by a whole step), - the 15th note (last note of the second measure) should be raised a half step (4 -> 4#), - and the 24th note (first note of the 4th measure) should be raised a whole step (5 -> 6). The rest of the video is very nice.

[@smalldotsensemble2058]

@@pianoplayer1262 I appreciate you pointing out kindly. I didn't notice that there were some mistakes in the score I referred to. I would like to have the ears you have... KZbin doesn't allow me to replace the video I uploaded, so I will think about deleting and re-upload. Thanks a lot!
