Bach Air on the G String from Orchestral Suite no. 3 in D major, BWV 1068 | 3 HOURS

The Orchestral Suite no. 3 in D major BWV 1068, was composed by Johann Sebastian Bach at some point between the years 1717 and 1723, for his patron Prince Leopold of Anhalt. From this work comes the famous Air on the G string, titled after violinist August Wilhelmj’s late 19th century arrangement of the air movement for violin and piano. By transposing the key of the piece from its original D major to C major and transposing the melody down an octave, Wilhelm was able to play the piece on only one string of his violin, the G string. _____________________ This music video is made of ’Air on the G String’ part only.
