  • UPDATE: The tabs for this piece are now available in this e-book:
    www.ukulele-art...
    Finally I recorded my arrangement of this wonderful piece. During the last month I arranged many wonderful christmas carols and pieces. So I intend to put this arrangement as final piece into my upcoming christmas e-book. It will contain 20 arrangements. Most of them are new, just for "Silent Night" I will use my old arrangement which is really nice and easy to play.
    Most pieces in this e-book will be really easy, the difficulty level is much lower as in my previous e-books. This will be the final piece because it's the most demanding of them.
    I want to thank all my supporters! :-) However I am still unsure if the pricing of my recent e-books was okay. So I'd be happy about feedback and suggestions :-)
    Sorry for the cuts. All kinds of things went wrong during this recording, hardware and software failures as well as other distractions. At the end I decided to try to paste together the remnants anyway. Since it sounds a lot better as I feared, I decided to upload it anyway.
    You can find my older e-books here: www.ukulele-art...
    I wish you all the best and a great time playing the ukulele!
    Wilfried

    Bach made such great music inspired by the sacrifice of Christ. Thank you for this version and may God bless you.

    Thanks a lot, Peo! You're so generous with your praise! When I finished this recording session, I almost deleted it... The music however is so great. Bach was probably the greatest musical genius of all times.
    Of course I also listened your version of this piece, and it is wonderful.
    I really wanted to transcribe the full melody line of the 1st violin, this has not been done so far for the ukulele AFAIK. It's a bit of a challenge, but it's such a beautiful melody...
    Best Regards, Wilfried

    Thanks Mike! I have to say it was much more fun as pain. Bach's music is so beautiful that it is a joy even if it is insanely difficult :-)
    That said, it was not too difficult. I spent some time trying different variants to find elegant fingering, and that was quite enjoyable too.

      I know it's a bit misleading if you look at the video provided in piece 20 of this e-book. But in fact there are 2 arrangements of this piece in the e-book, so you could say this is the 21th arrangement of the book.

    Viele kommen aber auch mit genau 12 Bünden aus.

    Beautiful! It seems it's more challenging to play this on ukelele than on a normal six-string guitar. Are my impressions right? His left hand makes some gymnastic.

    • @wwelti
      @wwelti  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks. This is mostly campanella playing, where for every new note a different string is plucked, so that notes blend into each other. Actually this is easier on the ukulele than on the guitar due to the re-entrant tuning. It's a special way of playing that is not very usual on the guitar.
