J.S. Bach: Lute Suite No.2 (BWV 997) - Gigue

Original Tablature by: TJ FLIPPIN - tjflp@aol.com

Corrections and re-formatting by: El Guapo - January 2002

This is my revision based on TJ FLIPPIN's original tab, which was in turn 
based on Paul Vondiziano's interpretation of the song from http://mp3.com

John Williams also has a great recording of this piece, the only change I 
could hear is that he plays an open E at the beginning of the seventh 
measure instead of an open B.

For the most part, the original tab was pretty good, except here and there 
a few measures were transposed too low, a few notes were missing, and the 
formatting was sparse (and in the wrong time signature). This song can now 
also be heard exactly on Weed's archive, as the new MIDI which I am 
submitting with this is an exact playthrough of this tab.

[note: the tab has the main beat on the 2nd note of the measures - Weed]


Tuning: E A D G B E 	Time Signature: 6/8

Consistant pacing at 96 bpm, emphasis on the dotted beats.
