MINUET: J.S. BACH
TRANSCRIBED BY: KEVIN MANGES (KevinM2556@aol.com
I tried to include some fingering (under the TAB) to assist in keeping this
smooth. There are quite a few pull-offs that I did not indicate, but a
listen to a recording and you'll find them easy to spot. I have two versions
of this piece; the piece below and one much longer. I chose to TAB the
shorter version because I'm lazy. I've heard it recorded both ways. It's a
pretty piece. This looks best in Courrier font.
Enjoy.
