I've got 2 arrangements of that if you're still interested.
One is by someone named B. Calatayud ( I never heard of him either)
and is of medium difficulty. I've only got a xerox, so I don't
have a publisher.
The other is from the collection "Parkening Plays Bach" (There's
a record of the same name.) The publisher is, are you ready for
this? Antigua Casa Sherry-Brener Ltd of Madrid, 3145 West 63rd st.
Chicago, Ill. 60629. This one I would call difficult.
I can xerox either or both if you're interested.

| I've got one coming in the mail that sounds like what I'm looking for.
I think the Parkening version is a unique interpretation which is not
what I'm looking for.
Thanks though,

| Parkening plays Rick Foster's transcription, which is in C. As
far as I know, it was the first published guitar version. Lots
of people started playing it after Chris recorded it, but it never
really sounded quite right to me. Maybe it was the key. I started
working out a transcription in G (the original key) nearly 20 years
ago, before I heard anyone play it on guitar, but never finished it.
I coulda been a contendah! (;-)
Actually, I don't know if G would've worked all the way through. Has
someone done it in G?

| I have played the Foster transcription for 12 years ( not continuously,
silly) and think it's pretty accurate. I must think, though it is
not a repetoire peice like the lute suites. Rather, this is an example
of a beutiful peice adapted to the instrument for the performer's
and audiences pleasure. I read it now, and if i play it through
each day in a week, I pretty much have it memorized. As transcriptions
of this piece go, this is the standard. Everybody knows of it pretty
much.

| I recently picked this piece up from a sheet music store just down the
road from the office. It's very simple and is in the key of A. I love to play
it, its a real relaxer after a tense day at the office.

The version I've been playing lately is in G. It's out of a
collection of "standard" guitar literature. It's not very difficult.
G works reasonably well-- the biggest problem is in places the
arpeggios and the bass line converge on "D." This makes the
arrangement sound awkward in places (the bass note doesn't get
sustained long enough). I "correct" this in some places by using
a "D" on the 5th fret of the A string for the bass note and the
open "D" string for the arpeggio D note.
I can't remember the name of the book. If anyone's interested, I'll
look it up and post it later.
