Re: Week 1: A Guitar has Six Strings, Right? @joosje That was wonderful, Joosje! Yes, it needs work, but so much beauty is already coming through. I particularly loved the way you played the ascending scale-type passage from about 2:56 - 3:03.…

Re: Week 1: A Guitar has Six Strings, Right? @joosje Thanks, Joosje. These slower Bach pieces for solo cello or violin are tricky to transcribe it seems to me. You want to be faithful to the original while taking advantage of the guitar's…
