One of the most important Baroque lutenists and composers and a direct contemporary of Bach, we are very lucky to have the music Weiss. This is one of a few of Weiss’ easier and shorter works and transfers nicely to the guitar overall. The octave register of the bass is flexible due to the reduction from 13-course Baroque lute to 6-string modern guitar but I’ve made decisions based on the musical motifs. YouTube Lesson Link

Brad:
Nicely delivered and fingered throughout. I enjoy much of Weiss’s music a bit more than that of Bach’s transcribed works for classical guitar, and when I pit Weiss vs. Bach in my salon concerts, much of the time the audience favors the Weiss works. Really appreciate your lessons, videos, and sheet music.
Continued success!
Kind regards,

Great to hear that! Weiss forever!
