For more than 25 years, Die Form’s artistic appeal has been their seamless fusion of music, photography, performance, and experimental film. This can be seen through their diverse fan group ranging from lawyers to laborers and from students to artists. Their haunting compositions have always exhibited classical nuances while remaining rooted in advanced electronics. In 2007, Die Form was invited to perform a selection of Johann Sebastian Bach’s works re-arranged as an audio-video show at the Bach Fest in Leipzig, Germany.
The response to their interpretation of Bach was so overwhelming, that it warranted a CD release. Bach Project is 13 selected pieces of Bach’s work created using organic, electronic, and neo classical elements with experimental structures, classical harmonies, and vocals. The marriage of Die Form’s music and Bach’s compositions is something that cannot be imagined, only experienced. Released on Metropolis and available February 5th, 2008.
