When They Built Cathedrals - Sample Tank 4

WHEN THEY BUILT CATHEDRALS

In 2007 I wrote a track about the awesomeness of cathedrals. That was made on my Yamaha
or Roland workstation keyboard. inspired by the restoration of Notre Dame cathedral I felt an urge to restore my original 2007 track, with better instruments and better remix. This remake is all Sample Tank 4 for the first 4 minutes. Then the 2007 track is mixed in with ST4 to the end.

This work is in passacaliga form (a repeating bass line with variations on top). Terry Fry wrote the repeating bass line and asked me to write music on top. Be a little careful as it has a wide dynamic range and deep sub in some sections. Hope you enjoy. Comments welcome. Have a great Christmas, and happy New Year!

Hey Mike,

What a beautifully spacious and melodic piece of work!!

The pipes and the bells towards the end are very fitting both for the subject matter and the time of year, nice touch.

I've been fortunate enough to have been inside Notre Dame cathedral (before it was burnt down thankfully) and I can easily imagine this theme playing as one looks up and takes in the majesty of the architecture there.

Nice work buddy.

Cheers, CS.
