This is the Prelude in C Minor from Bach’sWell Tempered Clavier. This was written for keyboard but has been transposed to guitar. I wish they would have shown a closeup of her playing. The version I found with a closeup of a person playing was not played as well. BTW, I learned how to play the Prelude in C Major on piano but I think this is beyond me, although Claudia will say she could prolly teach me how to play it in a few weeks

Here’s Glenn Gould, one of the best Bach interpreters of the 20th Century, playing this. He plays it much slower than most pianists.

Get thee to a piano Claudia and play this. I know you know it! Do you play it faster than Gould?

Another one from Pres. (more…)
