Bach Double Violin Concerto
on: August 02, 2004, 05:34:32 AM
I love this concerto and I have wondered if I would ever be able to play it somehow. Does anyone know the proper way to make a transcription?

I've played the original version (on violin), and the teacher asked me to learn both violin 1st and 2nd.
It's very easy actually, the second violin easier than the first. Why don't you learn it on violin, I'm sure it wont take much time, it's fun fun fun. It is on grade 4 on Suzuki violin book
I wonder if a transcription will work because it has close register on both hand, which will make your hand bumps into each other. believe me, on violin it sounds better because you have the different colour of voice even though they play the same notes. It makes it more clear that it is actually a conversation of two instrument.

WHAT??
I've heard transcriptions of this for harpsichord, so I'm sure there's music floating around for this already.

I have a copy of a piano transcription of the first movement of the Double Violin Concerto. It's by someone called Masuko. It works very well on the piano. I don't have the music on me where I am right now, but I could have a look for it when I get back home in a couple of weeks.
