About this arrangement

Piano/Keyboard - Mid-Elementary SKU: HL.414784 John Thompson's Students Series/Mid-Elementary Level. Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Arranged by John Thompson. Willis. Recital, Solos. Book Only. Willis Music #8508. Published by Willis Music (HL.414784). UPC: 884088000943. 9.0x12.0x0.011 inches. Bach arr. John Thompson Mid-Elementary Level.A musette is a small bagpipe that was used in nearly all the European countries in times past. Like the modern bagpipe it contained a leather bag full of wind which supplied a drone bass against whatever melody was being played on the pipes of the instrument. This simple transcription of a Musette by Bach (transposed to E Major) uses open fifths which very much sounds like the drone of a musette or bagpipe.
