measure 19 - top note of 2nd chord changed from E (open 1st string) to F# updated 1 March 2024 by weed@wussu.com LEGEND h hammer-on p pull-off tr indicates trill {x} indicates measure number (x) indicates an optional note [x] indicates notes in the original that may not be playable, but are included for the sake of completeness. Rhythm notation for standard measures is as follows: | - | - | - | - 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & For those accustomed to letter markings: H Q H Q H E E E Q Q Please note that there are extra spaces between measures to prevent high frets from bleeding over and to enhance readability. Measures with 16th notes or double-digit fret numbers have been expanded. No extra spaces are added in these. This expanded rhythm notation follows: | - . - = - . - | - . - = - . - | - . - = - . - | - . - = - . - 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & etc. DETAILED NOTES Regarding difficulty in playability of certain chords, such as or or |--1--7--3--| These chords aren't necessary impossible, but I myself |-----5-----| cannot pull them off convincingly. I suggest that if |--2-----5--| you find yourself unable to play a given chord, you should |--3--7--2--| gently arpeggiate it. Keep in mind that for this chord to |--5-----4--| be played on the violin, the D @ 5 on A-string and the F on |-----3-----| 1st fret of high E-string would be audible only briefly before the violinist brings the bow back to its middle position. As for the long passage where you have to keep hitting that lower G, measures 2xx to 2yy, I recommend just slowing down a bit. Paramount among objectives in replaying this fugue is to approximate the original work as intended for violin, but compromises may be made where needed. To recapitulate, when playing full chords, focus on sustaining only those notes that are in the middle, or that carry the full voice. This usually means the top 2 strings being used, or the middle two strings in four-note chords. Regarding the fugue itself and its context and transcription: This magnificent fugue in four voices is the longest of the three solo violin sonatas written by Bach, coming in at 354 measures. Featuring heavy use of stretto in the polyphonic sections, stunningly complex solo voice sections, and two 'triple-stop' sections, this fugue also takes a unique turn at measure 202, where the voice comes in 'al riverso.' Altogether, it is a splendid fugue equal in complexity, technicality, and scope to the great organ fugues. Its flavor is more rococo than baroque, in keeping with the progression from early-baroque to late-baroque to rococo that Bach intended in his writing of the six violin solo sonatas and partitas. Emphasis has been placed on authenticity; not a single note has been added or removed. Because the violin can only sustain two voices at a time, there are many instances where open strings or even fretted notes should not be held. Conversely, there are also instances where open or fretted notes that are shown as tied in the manuscript should be plucked to match the violin version of the fugue. Due to bow mechanics, the middle two notes of four-note chords are usually the ones that are sustained.
