Bach, Johann Sebastian: Suite BWV 1006a

Johann Sebastian Bach's works for the lute and the Lautenwerk (BWV 995, 996, 997, 998, 999, 1000, and 1006/a) have long been part of the guitar repertoire and remain a cornerstone of the curricula of conservatories and advanced training academies around the world, recognizing this music's essential role in the education of modern musicians and guitarists. The purpose of this guitar transcription is to provide a teaching aid that—faithfully reflecting the articulation marks, ligatures, tempos, and embellishments found in the manuscripts—also offers suggestions for their execution and suggests functional fingerings for both hands.
