Air on the G String by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). Arranged for Guitar. This is from the 2nd movement in Bach's Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major, BWV 1068. Includes both a Notation-only edition and a TAB Edition, PDF Download. Level: Easy-Intermediate, Grade 4.
This easy arrangement was created for students or guitarists playing gigs such as weddings. It should be pretty easy and sight-readable in general. The original is an orchestral suite so clearly some reduction has taken place. I try to keep the violin melody clear but did away with the octave leaps in the bass for ease of playing. You can also find the tab as a hardcopy in my Classical Guitar Tab book on Amazon.
