Product Description

Bach's "Air on the G String" is essential in the history of music for several reasons. It was composed in 1731 as part of his third orchestral Suite in D Major, BWV 1068. It has remained an iconic piece of classical music, known for evoking emotions of peace, tranquility, and serenity. The arrangement by August Wilhelmj, facilitating performance on one violin string, led to its nickname, "Air on the G String." The piece is also significant for its simple yet elegant structure, adaptation of various musical arrangements, and enduring popularity, often used in wedding ceremonies and other solemn occasions.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
