Synopsis

Product Description
From the nineteenth century transcriptions by Francisco Tárrega to those by John Duarte and Rick
Foster, the tradition of performing J.S. Bach's music on the guitar has fashioned works of great beauty
and transformative power. The two Chorale Preludes include the use of plucked strings, which impart
serenity and clarity. The Cello Suite is especially well suited to the guitar, the aria-like beauty of its
Sarabande being the height of elegance and nobility, whilst the Violin Partita No. 2, with its monumental
Chaconne, translates to the guitar with hypnotic force. Graham Anthony Devine is one of the world's
foremost guitarists whose British Guitar Music (8.557040) was lauded as 'a winner in all respects
beyond reproach'. (MusicWeb International)
