Lacrimosa from Requiem in D minor - For 3 oscillators and 1 polysynth

Modular synth cover of Lacrimosa, from Mozart's Requiem in D minor.
This piece has always has been one of my favorites, so I tried to make a simple arrangement for modular synth (lead melody), Korg Monologue (bass), and the Roland JU-06A (strings part)
Lead melody running through 2 oscillators on modular synth using Hermod as CV to MIDI converter. Modulation with FONT filter module from nano modules and Pico Mod from Erica Synths.

Yes the intro is so ghostly perfect. I love the very simplistic but haunting melody through your synths my friend. Good work. Plz do more classical pieces.

[@propylaeen]

The probably most best modular synth piece I’ve ever listened to…

[@Klufravan]

Indeed a wonderful piece from the very end of Mozart's life. Everytime I get a shiver. The first 8 bars, so music scientists found, were the last notes he composed. Thanks for doing the tiny break at that point in your arrangement.

[@Ciopekwah]

and yet the guy who composed the rest of the tune gets no credit whatsoever >:V

[@Klufravan]

@@Ciopekwah There were two people doing that attempt. First was Franz Xaver Süßmayer, a student of Mozart. Constanze (Mozart's wife) urged him to finish the Requiem because it was ordered for money and Constanze needed that cash. Later on, music scientist found that it could have been done better, more "Mozart-ish". Franz Beyer, such a scientist, made a new version of it and this is present in the Requiem's music books today. And yes, the music books contain the credits for Franz Beyer and mention the existence of the early Süßmayer work.

[@javipuente7079]

Lacrymosa is not the last music he composed, it is false; Mozart stopped composing Requiem to compose "La Clemenza di Tito", and "Little Masonic Csntata" K623, and after that he died.

I beg you to remove the bird chirping

[@myless789]

Wow this is amazing! I wonder how Mozart would have responded to hearing this

[@pureeschaap]

It would be SO interesting to hear Mozart improvising via Eurorack :) ---- Anyway: great stuff!

[@deOrbiter]

Very nice! Lacrimosa is also my favourite piece!

[@rafabece]

thanks!

How was this not in Castlevania?

[@dyleldershaw6823]

this is sick! do you have each of them running through a large interface and into a DAW, with the notes put in through MIDI?

Beautifully performed and such evocative tonality. You voiced those parts really well.

[@ingorichter649]

This eternal piece is highly suitable for organ transscription as You can hear here in all it's subtile beauty. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@numalocapelut]

I'm speechless. Your cover is full of emotions. It reminds somehow the atmosphere of "sacrificial" by Danny Baranowsky. Excellent job !

[@nickangel6596]

Hecho con mucho gusto y sensibilidad. Suena de maravilla. Con un atento aplauso de Ginebra (Suiza)

[@infamismworldwild6248]

Travis Scott :O I see what you did there...

[@scottraymond5490]

Very seriously good. Talk about the oscillators a little? You're routing what to the Korg mono, and what to the Roli J6? It does sound wow, like Mozart would dig this.

[@rafabece]

Hey, thanks for your nice words. So, there are 3 sequences. The Korg is doing bass notes for the whole piece, the Roland Ju06a is making a polyphonic sequence, basically a minimal version of the strings arrangement, and the main voice (the chorus) is a simple mono patch on the modular, using ONA oscillator. Hope that clarifies it

[@DonErikos]

es bueno, el libro de clarke una odisea espacial ?

[@esteelvauce7288]

well arranged. perfect example for how good even simple tones work when the composition is good. why did you put the birdsounds in the background?

[@rafabece]

Thanks for listening! Glad you like it. I added the birds because I want to capture the feeling when I was recording it. Which was birds and wind through my window (:

Very nice! I think this setup would work well for some old hymns which are from Mozart or inspired by.

Eu não consigo fazer isso nem acordado, que dirá o @Rafael Dormido

[@1q2w3e4r5t6zism]

Here you can also hear that Mozart died much too early - the first romantic sounds are heard. What a pity! The recording is great - the synthesizers are alive.

[@dktr2380]

Love it. Beautiful.

It reminds me of somewhat of Isao Tomita.

Great work ! I cant help to wonder how did you sequence the whole thing so long ?

Wow this is beautiful. Love what you did with the piece.

This has Isao Tomita vibes from here to eternity and back, and I love it. You da man!

[@Z-Ack]

I never understood why people always feel they have to tweak some knobs during a playthrough where no tweaking is necessary or make much difference in output. Most of the time they end up hitting some connection or breaking the sound in some way accidentally or adjusting something they just adjust right back to where it was in the beginning like this person.. lol.. just let it be…. Is funny watching “dj’s” in clubs hit play then act like theyre actually making the music but are just turning different levels of treble, reverb and crap that doesnt do much of anything yet theyre looking like they have to turn this certain knob at this certain time..

[@rstmfan]

Lmao get a life and good pair of headphones

[@Varo486Photography]

You must be fun at parties.

it actually made a difference here though
