S.L.Weiss (1687-1750) Sarabande in g-minor Göran Söllscher guitar

Weiss was probably the greatest lute player of his time and composed a lot of wonderful music for the baroque lute.
We know that he met Bach a few times and that they played together.
It would have been nice to be there…..

Thanks dear Annette 🎶 best wishes to both of you

[@NoneOfyourBusiness468]

Listen to his fantastic vibrato. It is like giving each tone an own life beyond EADGH. I actually saw Göran in Örebro (Sweden) around late 1980. He started his concert and a light build exploded up in the ceiling so he decided to restart the concert. To hear him in a concert hall is a blessing.

[@goransollscher1730]

So fun to hear about that concert-thanks for reminding me 🎶

[@drperny]

splendide .... Weiss est l'égal de Domenico Scarlatti pour l'expression des sentiments et la virtuosité ......... et quel magnifique instrument si parfaitement maitrisé !! quel dommage que si peu de guitaristes s'aventurent dans ce continent à défricher!! merci maestro !! paris 16.02.2023

would absolutely love to see or purchase tabs for this piece, please let me know if these are published somewhere!

[@goransollscher1730]

I used the edition ’Weiss Intavolatura di Liuto’ edited by Ruggero Chiesa to make my arrangement.
This Sarabande is from the so called London Manuscript so if you can tabulature that might be a possibility.
Good luck 🎶

Love your 11 string guitar! Is there a metal brace supporting it? Does it rest on your knee? Haven't noticed that before

[@goransollscher1730]

Yes,it’s called Guitar Rest.This one was made in Japan-very convinient.

This is a real find; I adore Weiss' music but this piece is new to me. Which suite/sonata is it from? Thank you for posting such gorgeous pieces.

[@goransollscher1730]

It’s from a collection of short pieces published by Pierre Ballard in 1638. And thank you 🎶

[@goransollscher1730]

Sorry - I wrote about a piece by Mezangeau that I posted earlier today….
The Sarabande by Weiss is from a Suite in g-minor from the London Manuscript

I checked with Nigel Norths beautiful recording-it’s from Partita in g-minor,nothing else
