Johann Sebastian Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor"

     The way I would like to go about these blog posts is to describe my personal experiences with musical pieces and what imaginations they have inspired in me.  It is important for me to recognize Disney's "Fantasia," which has introduced music through the means of animation.  I was simply enchanted and enamored with classical music.  Of the several pieces that had inspired me through the movie, the one that has influenced me the most today is Johann Sebastian Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor."
   Personally, I see this piece as one of the most resonating, dramatic, and influential pieces of classical music.  It is the echoing conversation of notes, with the fugue drawing more inspiration like the steady increments of waves rising by a nearby harbor.  The dexterity and transitioning required by the hands to perform tocatta is what is an art form of its own.  The pipe organist expecting to create music for listeners has instead created a beckoning feeling that will draw deep, dark, unknown emotions which only a forbidden memory can only do.
   To call what Johann Sebastian Bach has composed, a piece, is reducing its' level to mere sheet music.  What he has created is an entity that has inspired music still today.  There is something quite profound about J.S. Bach.
