Karl Keating turned me on to this video of a virtuoso performance by one Ben Bosco. He expertly plays this classic Bach piece on several stringed instruments — bass, mandolin, mandola, and guitar — and the compiled tracks make a feast for the ear and quite an interesting spectacle for the eye. Check it out!
An expert performance and a decent translation.
It really is quite amazing….
But the instruments chosen don’t quite capture the original.
But still, very good!
There are a number of additional videos in this vein at his website. Very cool!
