"Largo e dolce" from Bach's Flute Sonata in Bm, BWV 1030

by Howard Levy

/

about

I've always thought that the melody sounded bluesy, so first I took a bluesy, gospel approach to the piano part, changing some of the harmonies as well.

I practiced playing this many times, and what you hear on the recording is my first and only take. Then I overdubbed the harmonica part on a G diatonic harmonica, sometimes playing what Bach wrote, sometimes improvising.

If you would like to play it, here are the score and part:
