I'm a cellist and I've performed the Bach suites many times and heard a lot of other interpretations. When I hear it on guitar, it lends some kind of a magical tranquility that you just can't do with the cello.

I'm not a cellist and I've never performed Bach, but when I hear Bach on cello.... I cry. Cello's are the best, keep listening to guitars, and keep using your cello. Thanks

The guitar offers many different Timbres. Segovia talks about this in an elegant way and said “the guitar is the easiest instrument to play but the hardest instrument to play well”

Sometimes, 3 minutes of Bach, properly interpreted, can calm a turbulent day & ease a troubled mind. This was one of those times. Thanks for sharing a wonderful performance. It made my day.

I think Back would have written many more pieces for "parlor" instruments if the Guitar was 2 centuries further in advancent. The lute lacked the lyrical dynamics, which were brought to the Guitar years later by Segovia and his work with Luthiers such as Manuel Ramirez and The German Howser. Actually he would have written conciertos for Guitar if Segovia lived in his day.

J. S. Bach has got to be grinning from ear to ear right now. Absolutely beautiful to hear. Thank you so much for this.

As a straight man from the southern United States I think the best compliment I can give you is that your music is so beautiful I didn’t even notice how beautiful you are yourself. Around here men typically see the pretty girl and then click on the video just to see her and I clicked on this from a google search of Prelude on guitar and my God are you something special(talent wise). Keep up the fantastic work you are doing

As a cellist who is currently playing this song, it transposes beautifully. For all the time I've heard of prelude its been the "Classic cello piece", but it definitely is not just great on the cello. This is proof.

Julia Lange is the perfect guitarist to perform this lovely piece. I can listen to her play for hours.

A beautiful, gifted classical guitarist playing timeless music. What more could you ask for?

There was a time, many years ago when I was just a kid, I would sit for hours on my porch and try to play as fluid as this young lady, alone except for this stray cat who used to sit and purr as I plucked the strings, never complaining that I never reached that level. It was the effort that mattered, the attempt. I wish I had that heart today, somewhere it got lost, but hearing this captures a bit of it, and reminds me of the joy of the challenge to play like the masters. Very well done young lady, very well played indeed.

Incredible performance Julia. To think that J.S. Bach composed this 300 HUNDRED years ago; just insane how the mind can produce this... and without the internet. We have only one reborn soul who can possibly reinvent such beautiful things, and she is Alma Deutscher. Look up her channel.

This is the first video of yours I've listened to but, as often observed when discovering someone who takes time to interpret each not, each phrase and turn it into a story, this will not be my last. Also, as someone who appreciates physical beauty, especially when harmony manifests, your face, your attire, your guitar, all seem to belong in that room. Everything combined speaks of classical elegance. Brava...

You should hear it on cello. Mind will be blown

Fabulous, and for all of the reasons mentioned below. Julia is beautiful, Bach's Cello Suite No 1 is beautiful, Julia's virtuosity is beautiful, and the setting is beautiful. The problem is the setting. It is also beautiful, in the way that the house turned-museum of a long-dead classical music composer can be beautiful: elegant, refined, clean. Exactly what one would expect. This is why classical music concert halls are largely filled by a dying demographic of cotton-heads. The same piece played by Julia weaaring a sweaty and dirty house dress in a squalid apartment with a view of Mexico City or a Favala in Brazil, would, potentially, go viral. In other words, there is nothing at all wrong with presentation of classical music in its traditional formats, as we see here. And perhaps its survival will never depend on how it is presented, after all, as long as humans are able to recognize and appreciate the transcendent beauty of music it will always be with us in one form or another. But for it to thrive, it can never do so without being relevant. Safe patronoge is one thing, but the patrons will someday be gone.

Thanks to you, this will be the first classical masterpiece I will be mastering. Thank you.

Beautiful! This tune always lifts my heart, and your rendition here is downright *magical*. Thank you :-)

When I was a young teen, my Dad would "force" us to listen to this on classical guitar incessantly, and I learned to loathe it. This was the early 70's mind you. Now of course I am Bach's biggest fan, and this was another one of those, how did he do it?? moments.

Listening to this made today a better day.

Absolutely beautiful, thank you ❤

The build up starting at 2:09 is genius. It’s a sonic guide to the part immediately after which sounds like Grace.
