Have you ever been frustrated by trying to play Bach’s Prelude in C (from the well tempered clavier) on the guitar? As he wrote it for keyboard, it’s not surprising that it doesn’t quite work, I suppose. Well, after many years of wanting to play it on my guitar, I have realised that unless I learn to play the lute or get a 10 string guitar, it’s not going to happen. The keyboard version is so beautiful that it doesn’t need any alteration, but I have always felt that it should work on guitar, somehow or other.
Here’s my way of putting things right; a version for guitar, that allows the bass strings to ring on, all the way through.
The chords are very different from Bach’s in many places, but it has the same format and rhythm (right to the end), so I have given it the title Bach’s Harp, as a tribute to the great man and his wonderful music. Please listen to the recording if you’d like to hear it.
