Johann Sebastian Bach - Air on the G String ( Classical Guitar )
Johann Sebastian Bach - Air on the G String ( Classical Guitar ) The "Air on the G String" is a musical piece for string and piano, arranged by August Wilhelmj from the Air of Johann Sebastian Bach's Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major, BWV 1068. The original orchestral suite was written by Bach for his patron Prince Leopold of Anhalt sometime between the years 1717 and 1723. The title comes from violinist Wilhelmj's late 19th century arrangement of the piece for violin and piano. By transposing the key of the piece from its original D major to C major and transposing the melody down an octave, Wilhelmj was able to play the piece on only one string of his violin, the G string. The Air on the G String was the very first work by Bach to be recorded. This was by the Russian cellist Aleksandr Verzhbilovich and an unnamed pianist, in 1902 (as the Air from the Ouverture No. 3 in D major, BWV 1068). It was used in the soundtrack of the film Yellow Submarine. Conducted by George Martin, it was released as "Sea of Monsters". In the movie Se7en, Morgan Freeman is doing research in a library late at night and comments towards the nightwatchmen that they should take in some of the culture of the place, instead of playing poker all night. As an answer, one of the night guards turns on a radio playing this piece, which becomes the score for the scene where Morgan Freeman finds lots of plot tells (whilst the guards still play poker...) The piece was also used in the production of video games, Mega Man Legends, where it is featured in the Kattlelox ...

JC Bach - Duet for Two Pianos in G Major - Mov. 1/2 JOHANN CHRISTIAN BACH (1735-1782) Duet for two pianofortes in G major Op. 15 1. Allegro Performed by Christopher Hogwood Christophe Rousset, pianofortes *Johann Christian Bach was a composer of the Classical era, the eleventh and youngest son of Johann Sebastian Bach. He is sometimes referred to as 'the London Bach' or 'the English Bach', due to his time spent living there. He is noted for influencing the concerto style of Mozart. Johann Christian Bach was born on September 5, 1735 to Johann Sebastian and Anna Magdalena Bach in Leipzig, Germany. His distinguished father was already 50 at the time of his birth, which would perhaps contribute to the sharp differences between his music and that of his father. Even so, his father first instructed him in music until he died. After his father's death, when Johann Christian was 15, he worked with his second oldest brother Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, considered at the time to be the most musically gifted of Bach's sons. He enjoyed a promising career, first as a composer then as a performer playing alongside Carl Friedrich Abel, a notable player of the viola da gamba. He composed cantatas, chamber music, keyboard and orchestral works, operas and symphonies. Bach lived in Italy for many years starting in 1756, first studying with Padre Martini in Bologna and later with Giovanni Battista Sammartini. He became an organist at a cathedral in Milan in 1760. During his time in Italy he converted from Lutheranism to Catholicism. In 1762 ...

Carmen: Habanera on solo classical guitar by Da Vynci (v2.0)
Carmen: Habanera on solo classical guitar by Da Vynci (v2.0) Habanera (L'amour est un oiseau rebelle) from the opera Carmen, composed by Georges Bizet / Sebastian Yradier, on classical guitar. v1.0: www.youtube.com Carmen is probably one of the first works that attracted me into the world of classical music. I remember when I was still in primary school, I once heard a recording of Anne-Sophie Mutters performance of Pablo de Sarasate's Carmen Fantasy on RTHK Radio 4, and it was remarkable. Since then I have also listened to many other renditions, but something always draw me back to Mutters legendary recording. I remember I often listened to this track when I went to Urban Councils music library. Eventually, I bought the CD of that recording in year 8 and this remains as one of my favourites to date.
