  4. About

  5. I rearranged Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade, Op. 35 for synthesisers and played it at half speed, in real time on keyboards, in several passes; it is not a MIDI render. Released on 25 May 2025, this original version lasts an hour and forty-one minutes over four movements. The aim was to create a vrai faux, the simulacrum of an orchestra, the result of nearly two years of experiment. A new mix inspired by Wendy Carlos, the Wendy Version, followed on 24 October 2025.
