A night in by myself

... so I thought I'd play some guitar...

  1. I was only thinking last night it was time you played us some more music.

    I didn't know the second two. The middle one was very Third Man-ish and the third had an old English sound to it.

    I liked them all!

  2. @liz - Thanks.... I should have said what they were... doh!

    First is famous Bach piece originally written for the organ and this is my interpretation of a version for the guitar published in a magazine some years back.

    Second is a Spanish guitar classic written by a man who I will argue is as important to the history of the guitar as Jimi Hendrix, Charlie Christian etc. Tarrega also wrote one of the most heard tunes ever - the Nokia ring tone, but when he wrote it it was just a bar in the middle of a guitar piece.

    Packington's Pound is an old English tune which as far as I know is not attributed to a particular composer but from around Downlands time so it must I presume have been a lute piece at some point.
