  • I made an arrangement of "Schafer können sicher weiden" (Sheep may safely graze) from Cantata BWV 208 by Bach. I worked on it for 6 days making changes over and over again. But I love this music and really wanted to make a playable arrangement and I think I made it! :-)
    Sorry for the "wet look" but I was gardening when it started to rain and I decided to record this instead of moving the lawn in pouring rain...
    Love,
    Per-Olov

    Reminds me of Psalm 23
    A psalm of David.
    1
    The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
    2
    He makes me lie down in green pastures,
    he leads me beside quiet waters,
    3
    he refreshes my soul.
    He guides me along the right paths
    for his name’s sake.
    4
    Even though I walk
    through the darkest valley,[a]
    I will fear no evil,
    for you are with me;
    your rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.
    5
    You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of my enemies.
    You anoint my head with oil;
    my cup overflows.
    6
    Surely your goodness and love will follow me
    all the days of my life,
    and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
    forever.

    I make a conscious effort not to speak in absolutes, so I will say that nearly every note is intentional. It is as if half of Per Olav plays, while the other half is taking a careful inventory or “audit”, if you will, of every note and the value.
    The phrasing is outstanding, and Julian Bream would agree as he once said “We hear the first note, and it is as if at that same moment we have also heard the last.” He said something like this in reference to the 1000/1001 Fugue - it is a privilege to play pieces such as this

      @Per-Olovkindgren  2 года назад +5

      Dear Charles Darwin. Thank you for your kind comment. Much appreciated. And I agree with Julian Bream (one of my guitar heros) that Bach's music is totally unpredictable and yet... we know the piece as soon as we hear the first note. Amazing!
