Bach Prelude In D Minor BWV 999

Description

In this tutorial we will learn the complete transcription of Bach's "Prelude In D Minor". This piece was originally written in C minor and one of the few pieces thought to have been written for the lute. The piece consists of a long flowing series of arpeggios or chords played one note at a time with the notes held. The fretting hand has some challenging chord shapes and the picking hand will be required to do a repeated fingerpicking pattern.

This transcription is in D minor, in 3/4 time, using straight 16th notes and we'll aim for about 60 BPM.
