Bach Cello Prelude, synchronized guitar duet

[Rocky Raccoon]

We tried to do a fresh, exciting take as a guitar duet on this classic Bach cello piece.

Very nice arrangment,
if you could record the guitars in different tracks on a DAW and make a simple mix it would sound awesome!

[Rocky Raccoon]

Thank you, glad you liked it. Yea, I agree. We were thinking of some different options but kind of put it together quickly and just recorded on a phone! We'll have to work on that!

Bach is magical !

I agree two tracks mastered for a little more separation.........I enjoyed it, keep arranging together, it works!!

Very good synchronization ..I m thinking that the arrangement could be different since there are two guitars to add more fantasy to it...another observation is that you must slow down when you finish a phrase .

i enjoyed it!

Yes, it would be nice, that way we can mix the parts much easier. I'm sure we will do some more tunes soon. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you, and thanks for the feedback. If we record it, we will probably layer it with some different harmony. We put it together rather quickly, but it was fun!

Stephen, (on left), is actually my student. He's a great player, very versatile and also sings and plays piano. So he wanted to get into some Bach pieces and we decided to tackle this cello prelude. We recently performed at a small festival and he wanted to play this piece so I kind of just harmonized with him.

Thanks so much. Yes, Bach is incredible, so many great works. You can hear classical, romantic, jazz, bluegrass, etc. in his pieces!
