Liked this video? Want a lesson? Got a computer handy?

I offer lessons over the internet to anyone, anywhere in the world!

Hour-long lessons are $30 to $50, depending on your preference. I do half-hr lessons as well and I teach all ages.

Check out some of my other videos as well!

Still unsure? We could set up a half-hr consultation for only $15. No commute and no hassle. It's straight out of the comfort of your computer at home.

So give me a shout! Just go to my YouTube homepage (link at top of this description) and message me from there. I'll send you more information than you need to know about my program so you can make the best decision.

Looking forward!

Mike

Piece: Toccata & Fugue in D minor, BWV 565 (1705)
Composer: Johann Sebastian Bach

TIP: If you are not me, you will get this pedal for the organ effect (effect at 2:26):

Or, do what I did and improvise. I used Guitar Rig for this... Simulate 2 octaves above and below and 1 octave above and below. That is four extra tones, in addition to the actual note being played. The extra four tones should be slightly out of tune...it's an old organ, you see. Use compression to make all notes of roughly equal attack. Use cathedral-like reverb. I also use a rotator and modest distortion to make the sound more vintage/old.

  • im not getting any feeling from this. it seems as if it was only a performance. as in, making it look harder than it is.

    you could have done the same thing with closer notes on some parts.

    but overall, great show
