Released in 1973, the album applies Moog synthesiser textures to baroque works by Johann Sebastian Bach, turning contrapuntal detail into something vivid, precise and unexpectedly expressive. Following the huge success of Switched-On Bach, this sequel helped confirm that electronic instruments could handle classical repertoire with real authority, not novelty alone. Carlos’s meticulous programming and layered arrangements bring new colour to familiar pieces such as the Two-Part Inventions and Sheep May Safely Graze, making the record a significant bridge between classical tradition and early electronic music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003c!-- Genres --\u003e\n    \n      \u003cp\u003eGenre: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/electronic-vinyl-records\"\u003eElectronic\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Walter Carlos\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cbs-records-international\"\u003eCBS\u003c\/a\u003e, CBS Masterworks – SBR 235628\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP, Album, Stereo\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_australia\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReleased: \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\/year_1973\"\u003e1973\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/electronic-vinyl-records\"\u003eElectronic\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/modern-classical\"\u003eModern Classical\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eSelections From Suite No. 2 In B Minor, BWV 1067\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Two-Part+Invention+In+A+Minor,+BWV+784\"\u003eTwo-Part Invention In A Minor, Bwv 784\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Two-Part+Invention+In+A+Major,+BWV+783\"\u003eTwo-Part Invention In A Major, Bwv 783\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Sheep+May+Safely+Graze,+From+\" cantata\u003eSheep May Safely Graze, From \"Cantata No. 208,\" Bwv 208\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSuite From Anna Magdalena Notebook\u003cbr\u003eBrandenburg Concerto No. 5 In D Major, BWV 1050\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"CBS, CBS Masterworks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44400203563073,"sku":"4924154","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/OS0yMTk5LmpwZWc_ffa81c91-fe34-40b1-9964-98393fc0c40f.jpg?v=1786688987"},{"product_id":"walter-carlos-switched-on-bach-392551","title":"Walter Carlos – Switched-On Bach (VG+\/VG+) – LP, AU 1968","description":"\n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003e Second Hand\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShips from: \u003c\/strong\u003e Melbourne\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedia: \u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good Plus (VG+)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCover: \u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good Plus (VG+)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n\n\n\n\u003cul class=\"tabs\"\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003eDescription\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRelease details\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTracklist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tabs-content\"\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Description tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eSwitched-On Bach is an LP by Walter Carlos from 1968 released on the CBS, CBS Masterworks label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch2 class=\"product-about-heading\"\u003eAbout this album\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eSwitched-On Bach is a landmark electronic reimagining of Johann Sebastian Bach that helped bring synthesiser music into the mainstream. Created by Walter Carlos and released in 1968, it used the Moog synthesiser to transform Baroque counterpoint into something startlingly new, yet still recognisably Bach. The album became both a crossover success and a critical talking point, showing that electronic instruments could handle classical repertory with precision, wit and colour. Its unexpected popularity helped open the door for synthesiser-led music in both pop and serious experimental circles, making it one of the most influential debut statements in modern electronic music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Walter Carlos\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cbs-records-international\"\u003eCBS\u003c\/a\u003e, CBS Masterworks – SBR - 235297\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP, Album\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_australia\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReleased: \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\/year_1968\"\u003e1968\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/electronic-vinyl-records\"\u003eElectronic\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/experimental\"\u003eExperimental\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/modern-classical\"\u003eModern Classical\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Sinfonia+To+Cantata+No.+29\"\u003eSinfonia To Cantata No. 29\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Air+On+A+G+String\"\u003eAir On A G String\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Two-Part+Invention+In+F+Major\"\u003eTwo-Part Invention In F Major\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Two-Part+Invention+In+B-flat+Minor\"\u003eTwo-Part Invention In B-Flat Minor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Two-Part+Invention+In+D+Minor\"\u003eTwo-Part Invention In D Minor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA6 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Jesu,+Joy+Of+Man's+Desiring\"\u003eJesu, Joy Of Man'S Desiring\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA7 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Prelude+And+Fugue+No.+7+In+E-Flat+Major\"\u003ePrelude And Fugue No. 7 In E-Flat Major\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Prelude+And+Fugue+No.+2+In+C+Minor\"\u003ePrelude And Fugue No. 2 In C Minor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Walter+Carlos+Chorale+Prelude+\" wachet\u003eChorale Prelude \"Wachet Auf\"\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrandenburg Concerto No. 3 In G Major\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"CBS, CBS Masterworks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50855311835201,"sku":"1943022","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/MC0zOTkxLmpwZWc_9050813c-b56a-4d15-80a2-faaf9b7b171e.jpg?v=1793337954"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/collections\/walter-carlos-vinyl-records.oembed","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
