About this arrangement

Solo Guitar - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.940533 Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Arranged by Nick Clow. Concert,Instructional,Spiritual,Standards,Wedding. Individual part. 2 pages. Nick Clow #3379965. Published by Nick Clow (A0.940533). This famous piece is something of a crowd pleaser. It is often indicated to be an intermediate piece, but some versions are a little awkward for a piece at this level.This arrangement pays attention to left hand fingerings in order to smooth out some clunky sections. Bass notes are done away with in certain sections (with no loss to the musicality of the piece) to make it easier and more consistent. Hopefully this piece flows a little better than some others.The piece is set out tidily and logically on one page with one set of repeat bar lines. More fingerings are indicated than strictly necessary.The main tip for playing this piece relates to the unusual 9/8 tempo. Don't let it run away with you - play it solidly with a slowish pulse. That is the biggest challenge of this piece. This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
