Jerry Willard (Arranger), Johann Sebastian Bach (Composer) Guitars Editorial Review

This edition of J.S. Bach's Lute Suites provides an excellent compilation of challenging and rewarding music for any classical guitarist's library. The suites include pieces that are rarely played, providing a refreshing change from the usual repertoire. Though the fingering choices may be idiosyncratic at times, the presentation is overall clear with extensive footnoting and annotations for changes to the score. The publication could use re-editing for fingering errors and missing details. However, Jerry Willard's maintenance of the baroque style in which the pieces were written is excellent. The difficulty ranges from intermediate to advanced, and the suites are of moderate to long length.
