Why transcribe and perform the sonatas and partitas for solo violin on the guitar? It is surely the works themselves that provide the justification; their indestructible melodic poetry and their rich implied counterpoint at which the original violin can only hint.
Many guitarists have already gone where more cautious spirits would fear to tread and made their own transcriptions; this new version carries the imprimatur of David Russell, one of the most internationally acclaimed guitarists of his generation, who writes that Francesco Teopini ‘plays with a beautiful sound, faithfully recorded. His interpretation shows a deep understanding of these major works.’
In a useful booklet-note, Teopini himself notes that these works are now standard repertoire for guitarists, even mandatory for the sake of personal development, as perhaps Bach is for every musician regardless of instrument. His arrangement is relatively discreet, adding just a few more bass notes to amplify chords in movements such as the famous Chaconne which is the climax of the cycle. Elsewhere he has borne in mind the art of the clavecin, which no less relevant to the guitar as an instrument of Bach’s time than the original violin. There is naturally greater opportunity for ornamentation, which Teopini takes with discretion.
Italian by birth, Teopini himself is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Music in London, currently resident as a teacher and performer in Hong Kong, with a repertoire ranging from Bach through the Classical Spanish repertoire to contemporary works, several of which he has commissioned and premiered by composers including Gian Carlo Mantovani and Fausto Tuscano .

02:11:21 Sonata No. 3 in C Major, BWV 1005: IV. Allegro assai … amo esta obra! 🙂
Genio! Bach y sus caminos armónicos simples e infinitos
Played and mixed perfectly. Really sounds like piano
This is the most beautiful and subtlest thing in guitar I will find ever.
How has society become increasingly complex, and music has become increasingly basic
This music is in time with my breathing. Fast or slow it is in tune with my body. Pus everything the people below have said.
Bach is king.
I liked this until it was interrupted by commercials. I understand the need for commercials to pay for this but put them at the beginning. I'll watch them at that time NOT in the middle of a piece of classical music. Thumbs down for that
Quiero una escala filarmonica
This playlist is really great!
Been listening to Bach on guitar for years – this feels like a treat for any Bach enthusiast
Herzlichen Dank JSB
Bach ist der größte!
I prefer Bach played on the guitar to the piano (I don't like Bach played on the 'piano with a wheeze' aka the harpsichord)…
I can't stop listening to this great album truly beautiful and Amazing work , bravo meastro
Avessi ricevuto i complimenti da David Russell come te, Francesco, avrei campato di rendita su quel complimento per il resto della carriera ahahah grande!
Isn't this phenomenal playing? Once more, B.C. introduces us (me, at least) to a superb young musician, with an apparently promising career beckoning – deservedly. He probably has no need for more compliments; & B.C., either, for their wonderful presentations. Complaint? Info about Francesco's fine guitar? It supports his talent quite brilliantly (no less). Luthiers deserve due credit. Thanks to all.
I finally come Bach to the classical music and I think it's my best choice since a long time…
How does it feel like, when you are able to play all partitas and sonatas… I wish I knew….
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷Brasil!
Bossa Nova!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
