This collection of three works in transcription for guitar by J.S. Bach was the product of a conscious effort by guitarist Daniel Lippel and producer Peter Gilbert to steer away from the trap of attempting to make a "definitive" Bach recording. Their interest instead was to capture a snapshot of one performer's relationship to these pieces in a certain point in time. The hope was that by emphasizing the ephemeral in these works, the recording would capture and celebrate one of their most elevated qualities-- the capacity to sing through a myriad of interpretations.
