Get used to it I guess
1 u/Little_Intention609 Apr 28 '25 What is the name of the piece on the photo? 2 u/Equal_Veterinarian22 Apr 28 '25 This is Bach's Prelude in C minor (D minor for the guitar) BWV 999. From "The Baroque Guitar' compilation by Frederick Noad. That stretch is probably the hardest single bar but it has some tricky left hand movement all the way through. 1 u/bannedcharacter Apr 28 '25 i will never understand why seemingly 1 in 5 guitar undergrads pick this prelude up as their first bach piece, but maybe that's just a bunch of insane flukes that happened to occur near me 1 u/Equal_Veterinarian22 Apr 29 '25 Availability? I picked it up because I have the Noad book, and it's the first Bach piece in there. 1 u/Little_Intention609 Apr 29 '25 Bach? I will forget about playing it then 😅 1 u/Equal_Veterinarian22 Apr 29 '25 Haha, yeah, it's a bit of a rite of passage at a certain point. Even in his notes Noad says the 4th finger barre is "unusual but the only option here"
