In any passacaglia I keep reading the story of my life from when I was born and into the... unknown. Thank you, maestro.

Wonderful playing, breath taking. I found this Baroque in Vienna album on spotify and came here, this song reminds me the main theme of the tv show Westworld, i hope you make next video Dernière Courente de Gautier, i dont know why i like it too much and it is my favourite and Sarabande Grave too.

Am I the only one who gets caught by a strange trance every time someone plays on F# minor?

[@bernhardhofstotter5547]

The piece is in g minor. But I play it at a´=415 Hz.

where was the photo taken, pretty little village

[@bernhardhofstotter5547]

Near a small village in Alsace (forgot the name, sorry)

[@laoong]

Superb! It's your own transcription? (I presume it's not Sautscheck)

[@bernhardhofstotter5547]

Dear Waldemar, thank you! I would not really call it a transcription since I played straight from the original score. It all fits rather well on the lute if you play the lower voice on the open bass strings.
