Book Reviews of Parkening Plays Bach: Guitar Solo
Book Review: Parkening Plays Bach: Virtuoso Music for Guitar
Summary: 5 Stars
I found Pakening's transcriptions to be wonderfully true to the original compositions. I especially enjoyed the transcription of BE THOU WITH ME (Aria: Bist Du bei mir BWV 508). Though some of the stretches are fairly difficult, the music is beautiful in nature. Reguarding the stretches, Parkening himself said "No compromise has been made in requirements of technique." I give this book five stars.
