This is Tomita's masterpiece IMHO, but this isn't quite the original recording (the original is 12 minutes long, and mixed a bit differently). Where did you get this one from?
@DrLeavingsoon • This is a picture of the Unicorn or horn part of the Triffid nebula, (M20or NGC6514), it was taken by the Hubble telescope. This nebula was discovered by Charles Messier on June 5, 1764. There are two other beautiful nebulas, the Pillars of Creation and the Eagle Nebula.
I prefer this version to Bachs original. I bet a lot of people stop this vid before it gets to the main tune. Excellent combination of images and music.
@bah1mas If you read the notes off the "Kosmos" album from which this song is from, Tomita states that the Tarkovsky film is the source of inspiration for this song.
I first hear this song ( actually an excerpt from it ) on the original PBS broadcast of Cosmos when I was young. ( 1978 or so ) and I've been a fan of his work ( Tomita ) ever since.
As an artist myself, I would really like to know the name of the artworks and artists of the incredible fantasy images up till 2:45. They are incredibly inspirational and wonderfully majestic! Simply awesome!!! Please let me know.
@classyfunny beginning at about 1:30 we start seeing the fantastic art of the legendary artist and author Wayne Douglas Barlowe, where we see images inside his hellish "Inferno"
if you like this you must hear the version that contains the theme from "Ich Ruf'zu Dir, Herr Jesu Christ".......For some reason it's not in this version, and i think it's the best part. The version of Tomita's "Sea named Solaris" that i have which contains the mentioned theme, is from a tomita album titled "Bach Fantasy".
My grandad introduced me to Isao Tomita when I was about 10, this album was the first one I listened to, this always reminds me of him. Absolutely beautiful music.

ALEXSUMMER2007..I´M GIVING YOU THE ORIGINA NAME, FROM J.S. BACH: Three-Part Invention No. 2 in C Minor", BWV 788 and "Ich Ruf'zu Dir, Herr Jesu Christ", BWV 639 by J.S. Bach
I HOPE THIS HELP TO YOU,..BEST REGARDS!!... rrobles_e@hot
Does anyone know the name of the third image used (or even the artist)? It the on ewith the girl tied to the pole and the occultists in black around her. It looks like a Cthulu image. Any help appreciated. Cheers.
Yes, I know--point taken :-D I love Tomita's RENDITION of it, and the style that is all his own. So, if anyone could make people love the music of Bach even more--he could.
Whos the artist for the backround pics?!

@125RTY I want to clarify the last sentence. It should say the pillars of creation in the Eagle Nebula.
