New Masterclass, JS Bach Cantata #208

Renato Bellucci teaches Bach Cantata 208, Sheep May Safely Grace. It was guitarist Christopher Parkening who recorded a series of splendid Bach Cantatas that became very popular in the Recording collection of many players of my generation. The transcriptions fit the guitar perfectly and Parkening keeps the main voices and overall feeling intact. Actually, I like his transcriptions more than the original Bach Cantata. With Christmas just around the corner, I propose here my own attempt at this gorgeous Baroque Sacred Work. The technique is centered around a series of easy going block chords with just enough side slide to achieve smoothness of sound and gently bringing out the main voice by protruding the finger that carries the melody a little more than the remaining right hand fingers. Visit the Masterclass
