Default JS Bach BWV 911 Fugue 2

Hi,

My first post...
Here is my transcription of JS Bach's BWV 911 Fugue part 2.
Bach wrote this Toccata somewhere in his mid 20's.

I hope you enjoy it,
Thanks,

A fine way to introduce yourself.
Welcome. Beautiful arrangement and playing.

I don't know much about classical but I sure liked that.

Welcome!

And I'm jealous of your long fingers...said the guy with large and stubby fingers - LOL.

Hi Dave,
Slender yes, but sadly I am only 5'6". I'm so envious of some of my students who are at least average in height and thereby finger length. My kingdom for better DNA.

Thanks for the welcome
Chris

Watched some of your other vids.
Very nice.
An intro would be great...a few things about yourself.

Well I'm a little slow in sorting it out, but after a few decades of playing rock, folk etc. mostly flat picking, I finally found my true desire was with the Classical Guitar, and mainly Bach to be specific. This meant really learning how to fingerpick. Needless to say, it's still a work in progress but a very interesting one.
I enjoy transcribing a lot. I choose keyboard pieces that, to the best of my knowledge, haven't ever been transcribed before and create a Classical Guitar version of them.
I'll post some of my other transcriptions soon,
Thanks,

Chris

Hi,

I've put a sample page of the sheet music on my Flickr page.
The sheet music is 26 pages.
