Violin Partita No. 3 in E major BWV 1006 - 5. Bouree Transposed to C major and arranged for guitar by Jonathan Barchas - solifuygd(at)gmail(d0t)com This simple yet beautiful piece is a note-for-note arrangement of Bach's original manuscript for violin. I transposed it to C major from E major for ease of playing, as I feel in C it is a song any novice classical guitarist could learn and master. Suggested left-hand fingering is given below the tab, while note duration is indicated in the markings above the tab. Of course, feel free to use your own fingering! Key: C Tuning: Standard [EADGBE] Time: 2/2 Tempo: 130 (this is the tempo of the MIDI - play slower or faster dependent on your taste) Note duration markings - '|' represents a half note | - = - | - = - ... 1 & 2 & ...
