I love playing in rooms with high ceilings, especially live. It invites spontaneous dynamics - making the lines disappear in softness, playing over the soundhole, and then repeating a phrase with bright color, when I pick down by the bridge.
The composer of this little "Saltarello" was often a guest in the Bach household, making music. One of the greatest lutenists ever, Weiss was a friend of the Bach's and his music, at its finest, makes me think some of that Bach mojo rubbed off on him. I'm sure whatever sweetness and lyricism Bach may have heard from Weiss's lute went into the Bach genius machine.
Music from around 1735. ❤️
