Free Bach Duet - BWV 565 Toccata

 

If only J.S. Bach knew how top-o-the-pops he's been for so so long!!

Dear Flute-lovers, 

Hey. Do you want to play a little something by J.S. Bach that sounds like this? 

 BWV 565 on glass harp by Glass Duo  using four hands: (video) 

Or like this? BWV 565 performed as a flute quartet by Lynx Flute Ensemble (video)

Well today's the most surprising day for you then!! Here is a flute duo version of this work by J.S. Bach arranged for Flute Duet from BWV 565 Toccata and Fugue in pdf. Score and parts. 

When I wrote this, I performed both parts and used my Zoom H4N multi-track recorder.  It was le GAS! Give it a go! Or play it with your flute partner. Go go go!

Note: VERY advanced in difficulty level, but no reason not to have fun at slow tempi. This will make your year! (Just playing it for scales is fun!). I've also eliminated breathing impossibilities and other technical problems as much as flutily possible by using two players and interweaving them.

 Enjoy this gift and all the best,

Jen
