JS Bach kicks ass no matter what instrument is used…
What’s the BWV for this piece?
BWV 999
It’s a C Minor Prelude for Lute. I don’t know where that “IV” comes from: It’s not part of a collection of preludes or preludes and fugues or anything.
Actually, it is in the collection known as Twelve Little Preludes. But it’s #3, not #4, so the “IV” is still a mystery.
Oh, I see.
From Wikipedia:
“Twelve Little Preludes (French: Douze petits Préludes; German: Zwölf kleine Praeludien), BWV 924–930, 939–942 and 999, is a 19th-century compilation of short pieces, collected from various 18th-century manuscripts written by Johann Sebastian Bach and others”
“The 19th-century compilation set of the Twelve Little Preludes kept its presence as a collection of piano pieces in music printing and performance in the second half of the 20th century,[31][32] while other editors stayed closer to the collation in the 18th-century sources and/or that of the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis for their presentation of Bach’s short piano pieces”
Maybe Spina has his own prelude compilation. That would be perfectly fine I guess 🙂
Thanks for the BWV number… I was thrown by the ‘IV’ as well … I thought it was from the Well Tempered Clavier.
cheers!!
That is awesome. Well done. Not easy with a monophonic instrument.
Just tonight I was listening to a Dutch band called Eksepsion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekseption Wow, what a music those guys made!
Rickrolled!
