Allemande, BWV 996 by Bach & Lesson for Classical Guitar

[@Aislanzito]

Bach the greatest composer of all time

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

He's good, but there are tons of great composers for different qualities too!

[@fighter77weon]

He Is the god of music

[@fuffy442]

It takes a well-studied player to avoid the over-romanticization of baroque music, especially Bach. Well done! I like the second camera angle as well.

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Metronome usually does it!

[@irisy4541]

Bach is my favorite composer! His works sound really good on classical guitar. Thanks for the video!

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Thanks for watching!

[@mrovirap]

Such an amazing lesson and performance. Playing Bach on guitar is the most beautiful tihing a guitar player can never achieve. I admire yor work as a teacher and player, I wish I could sound like taht some day. Thanks!

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

You can, just keep practicing and work your way up with easier pieces first!

[@VincentMersich]

Perfect timing. I just started on this piece. Thank you.

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Nice, who's edition are you using? Koonce?

[@VincentMersich]

@@Thisisclassicalguitar not sure. from classical guitar shed. I am gonna buy your book now tho.

[@guitardellarte]

Thank you for what you do for classical guitar! It makes me feel nostalgic to hear this pièce. II played this suite for 20 years ago for my graduation...

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@conlamusicaaotraparte6206]

Absolute beauty!!!

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Thanks so much!

[@ricardocookcook6044]

Adoro Bach en guitarra. Se oye muy bien🎶🎵🎼🥰

[@krisa5896]

I've played this piece for several years and it is deceptively difficult. Very hard to separate the voices properly and bring out the beautiful melodies across many shifts. This is the issue with the Bach lute pieces: they are difficult to start with, and don't lend themselves easily to guitar. But their beauty grab you & won't let go!

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Yes, although it's possible to play in terms of just going through it, to connect it all nice and bring out the individual lines is quite difficult!

[@sergiobodini5094]

Bellissimo grazie ancora.

[@DeOmnibusDubitandum76]

Please, please, do Weiss's lovely Passacaille (lesson + sheet music) I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Keep well and stay safe!

[@mayrondharma7710]

thanks!

[@TonyKirkham1]

Nice, I liked the ornamentations.

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Ya, I usually like to add more ornaments but this one is just difficult enough to make me limit the amount.

[@amerkayyal5807]

Pls ...how did you play them ( the ornaments)?

[@ritupabankotoky]

Amazing sound

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Thank you 😋

[@deckeryeo3004]

Im learning this piece for my abrsm!

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Nice, what grade do they put it in?

[@deckeryeo3004]

Its grade 7 set a i think

[@violaoquetoca]

Muito bom.gostei👍

[@catharinemckenna8184]

Wonderful

[@robincorlett7835]

wheres the last piece, with the neck grooving?

[@bornthebjorn1490]

Hey, Mr Bradley, any chance you could cook us up an ornamentation lesson? There is only one ornament that you do that I have no idea how to do, and that is like...the mordent but with the ornamentation being on a different string(that might not be what's going on, its so fast I can't tell). But also I would like more variety! I hope this interests you or your students, I would absolutely love that lesson.

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Actually I'm planning a huge ornamentation section with videos covering each ornament along with historical context. Coming soon-ish...

[@bornthebjorn1490]

@@Thisisclassicalguitar I'm so excited! Thank you :)

[@andro.sphinx]

This is beautiful! I can play the bourree from the same suite, do you think this will be more difficult? Thanks for the video!

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

Yes, I'd say this is a fairly big step up in difficulty.

[@papahkiki8155]

This allemande is so beautiful... But you said it's an advanced piece... Guess i'll have to wait a couple years😅

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

It's not impossible or anything but ya, upper levels for sure.

[@Mtay2002]

Is this piece harder than Capricho arabe?

[@Thisisclassicalguitar]

It's a very different style and the difficulty is likewise different in its challenges. Capricho Arabe is flashy but really doesn't have the multiple voice separation and counterpoint of this work so very different types of skills. I'd say this is more difficult to pull off in good style.
