Re: Week 1: "Villa-Lobos Vibe" @Jack Stewart glad no vampires disturbed your holidays. Think vamping is those things that looks very fun on internet when other people are doing them. Less fun when you are the one doing it.

Re: BWV1007 Prelude @Martha Kreipke thanks Martha, it doesn't appear on the original. It seems more of the choice of the arranger probably to adjust for the guitar. Thanks!
