I'm not specifically familiar with this work, but I know
Switched-On Bach by Wendy Carlos as well as performers Bond and Apocalyptica. My take is.... all of the above. Why must
Bach Meets the Beatles be classified as Baroque or Pop or Rock when it's Baroque
and Pop
and Rock. AllMusic file
Bach Meets the Beatles under Easy Listening whereas the Amazon listing for the album says Chamber Music.
Do whatever makes sense to you. Nobody else will.
