Description: J.S. Bach’s Bourrée from Lute Suite No. 1 in E minor is a miniature masterpiece. Filled with melodic charm and gorgeous harmonic sequences, it is a cherished favorite, particularly among guitar and lute performers. Bourrée has been transcribed for many combinations of instruments over the centuries and is particularly well-suited for string orchestra adaptation. It is a textbook example of Bach’s ability to create a perfect marriage of the linear (melodic) and harmonic (vertical) aspects of Baroque music.
