31 Mar 16 - 07:47 AM (#3782410) Subject: Bach to the future From: Will Fly For those who read my recent two "Ain't Bach brilliant" threads - in which I described working on the Gavotte No. 1 from Bach's Suite for Unaccompanied Cello No. 6 in D major - I thought I'd do a last thread with a link to the "finished product". I say "finished product" with tongue in cheek, because things like this are never really finished, just stages in a process. Anyway, for better or worse: Gavotte No 1, Cello Suite No. 6 in D major |

There are one or two bits I could have been a little more precise with, but it was a great challenge for me (a very elementary sight-reader) and well worth the effort. More Bach for me! |

Here's a link to a product that prevents that, recommended by a guitar teacher at my local Conservatory. https://www.stringsbymail.com/kling-on-clear-classical-guitar-top-protector-3-piece-set-cl-3p-c-1238.html?zenid=8kbc96ab2aadipnut73ja9p3b6 It works, but take it off after playing. I hope it's available in the UK. |

I should have got Ian, my luthier, to put a clear plastic guard on it when I commissioned it - and forgot. I keep thinking it's too late to bother now, but I might reconsider... |
