Bourée Em - Guitar J.S. Bach BWV 996

Me playing the Bourree from Lute Suite No 1 in Em BWV 996 - by Johann Sebastian Bach. I know I should work my speed, because I'm kinda slow.
I found this piece in a classical book, and it's written it is an easy one, I found it was kinda hard. I wonder If I don't do something wrong ? any advice to improve my left hand technique/skill is welcome.

@EivindTM, sorry, you are wrong, scores are very superior than tabs, a real musician must read scores

[lemon0sqwishy]

its better to learn from reading music.

otherwise you have to find tabs for everything. its so much easier to find sheet music.

Can't you see he's the man, let me hear you applaud

he is more than a man he's a shiny golden god!!!! xD

Scores are written in the language of music and interpretation. Tabs are written solely for stringed instruments, for lazy musicians.

You play really good, in my opinion.

I'm also practicing it at the moment and

I think your speed is also okay. (:

I prefer this version. It's better than playing it too fast.

@josesuarezegas lol playing by ear is even better =p

@xxmanuelvaldesxx its not as hard as you think, if u finger pick it u should be fine, im trying to tackle this song as well unfortunately I barely got the intro down cause i never picked classical style.

Excellent job! keep up the good work..nice visual set up too (a real musician ;)

[xxmanuelvaldesxx]

this must be so hard since its 2 melodies at the same time

[josesuarezegas]

I insist in my point of view. A good score includes all the neccesary information to play a song. Learn to read standard notation is not hard. You can learn by yourself, you doont need a teacher, a good book is enought

@josesuarezegas It really is unfortunate to have such a close minded comment so highly rated. I can read scores and obviously tabs. Tablature is meant to ease the way into learning stringed instruments it's focus is fingering as oppose to notation. Sight reading guitar tabs is a thousand times easier than scores for stringed instruments. It's actualy horrible that there is a bias of wat a "real musician is" when it would be so easy to say, real musicians play by ear.

well if you`ve been playing this song a million times,i advise you to play it 10 trillion times and after that you will improve
