J.S.Bach Prelude BWV 998 Göran Söllscher guitar

I played this piece when I won the Radio France guitar competition in 1978,so it has a special place in my heart.
My recording of Prelude,Fugue and Allegro is available on Spotify.
Guitar by Georg Bolin 1974

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

Dear Göran. Thank you! I also have wonderful memories of the time you won in Paris and we met the week after at the Royal Academy in your class with Per-Olof. I was looking at you as a rookie on Elvis! You were. and in many ways, still are, my hero. 🙂When I heard you play the Allegro live on the radio, I was almost crying. How was that possible? How could anyone play like that?
Today I smile when I hear you. And if I have a tear in my eye, it's from joy. Isn't that better? 🙂
Per-Olov

Thank you my dear friend Per-Olov. I think we had a wonderful time with Per-Olof at the Conservatory in Copenhagen.
Let’s keep playing and try to spread the joy of music in this strange time.

[@Per-Olovkindgren]

@@goransollscher1730 Thank you my friend. Yes, it was happy days back ' then.
Let's spread some beautiful music! We try, we try...
Jag fick din email men jag ligger med influenza efter 4 dagar i en koncertsal med konstant drag. Jag vill svara bättre i morgon. 🙂
Thank you for your music!

Beethoven makes you awe, Chopin makes you wishful, Mozart makes you smile, but Bach I think makes Us better.
The more I grow older, the more I love Bach.
Thank you for this heavenly prelude, Goran.

[@userAvrahamAviZvia]

Tank you very much for your time.

[@hajoprecht3178]

The red bench is the best concert hall I can imagine.
Your precise play without haste and free of all the „effects“ on your wonderfull instrument reveals Bachs structures and intentions at its best.
Thank you for those wonderfull moments when Time stands still and your play goes directly to the heart.
Can‘t wait for the next gift of your art
to enlighten those actually dark days.
Thank you for that!

[@goransollscher1730]

So glad to hear-thanks a lot

An achingly beautiful piece of music played superbly. A truly lovely start to the weekend. This will inspire me to keep working on my own version for six string guitar. Thank you Göran.

One of my favourites bach pieces. The motif is beautiful and complex. And modulations perfects. I think is one of the rare pieces both for lute and harpsichord.

[@kimmills3264]

I'm so glad you made that point. I envision a gathering of thousands of musicians and singers... they engulf the leaders who are creating war, in music so beautiful and united that their hearts explode from it. And all that is left is a renewed soul who has remembered how to love so no longer needs to have power. I mentally surround these darkened souls with the river of light created by each of us who can feel the beauty and light/ love kind of power in music. Send it to the darkness so the darkness will fade to dusk and the new day can come again. 💜💛🙏

BACH FOREVER !

[@richardwillford2418]

For some reason I entered the world of Bach with this piece, played by this guitarist. The 1978 recording, which I bought in 1980, after having bought Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures, and before buying David Bowie's Scary Monsters.
Today there are a lot more guitarists playing Bach than back in 1980, but Göran Söllscher is still the one, the true master interpreter of Bach. He's still the big guy.

[@goransollscher1730]

That makes me so happy to hear. Thanks a lot 🎵
