J S Bach BWV 999 Prelude for Lute

Harpsichord: Duemusici( Jin Kamei)

Bach played by all likelihood do not lute [1], but he maintained close ties with luitisten and was therefore familiar with the sound, the idiom and the possibilities of the instrument. Johann Elias Bach, a relative of Bach, a description of Bach's meeting in 1739 [2] with two of the best luitisten of the time: "We were welcomed in the most excellent music when my cousin (di Wilhelm Friedemann Bach) from Dresden, in the company of two famous luitisten, Mr. Weiss and Mr. Kropff Gans, played in our house "[3]. Nevertheless, almost all work as we know they are not fully playable in their original version. First, how lutes were voted, it was impossible to play some basnoten as written by Bach. However, it was customary for luitisten work in a different position names in some of the Tabs is already made that adjustment. Secondly, some chords on a lute to play, including the vote and the size of the lute of the time.

Bach will therefore have gone from a luitist the work on his instrument would match. The tabla structures differ in more respects than the playability required [1]. The problems may be solved on a lute-harpsichord (Lautenwerk), an instrument which Bach would have been interested, but of which no copy exists [4]). Bach's cousin Johann Nikolaus Bach, the inventor of lute clavichords he delivered in 1715 a Lautenwerk Ernst August, Duke of Saxe-Weimar and Bach will most likely to have brokered the purchase [5]. Bach himself in possession of such an instrument had built by the Silesian Intrum slips builder Zacharias Hildebrandt [3]. Bach's pupil Johann Friedrich Agricola remembered later that he was "around 1740, in Leipzig, a lute-harpsichord saw and heard, designed by Johann Sebastian Bach and built by Zacharias Hildebrandt, and smaller in size than a normal harpsichord" [5] . Bach was very informed about the instruments at its disposal and was composed in an idiomatic way each instrument. It is unthinkable that in this case would otherwise have acted. The problem may lie in the use, mood and besnaring of the lute in 18th century Germany, which not much is fixed. It would also be conceivable that Bach wrote the work for a kind of lute which no copy exists [1].

Thank you!

This is a just harpsichord, but we have a Lute stop(damping system), that why we can make a imitation of lute sound.
