Composer John Kameel Farah treats the organ as the first analog synthesizer. He loops and transforms its sound, improvising over electronic patterns and soundscapes, intertwining Middle-Eastern modes and melodies with Renaissance and Baroque harmonies and counterpoint. Pieces of Bach emerge occasionally, re-composed with electronic accompaniment. The interplay of organ and synthesizer sounds blur and meld as they reverberate in the church’s acoustic space, creating an experience Farah calls “Baroque-Mid-Eastern-Cyberpunk.”
