The works of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) which are generally considered to have been originally written for the lute (BWV 995-1000 and 1006a) are being published here in a series of practical editions in tablature for the standard 13-course lute of Bach’s time in the d minor tuning. Each edition in this series includes an introduction which discusses sources and specific points of interest or enigmas related to the individual piece.
