Bwv 147 Chorale Jesu Joy tab by Bach Johann Sebastian

Guitar Tab

[a version in open A, another in dropped D]

   "Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring" by J.S. Bach, arranged by David Qualey

   Of the many transcriptions and arrangements of JJMoD, this is by far
   my favorite.  I first heard this rendition on the Windham Hill Winter
   Solstice album.

   The principal characteristic of this piece is that it sounds as if
   it is played with a capo in the high frets.  In fact, Mr. Qualey
   recorded the piece using an octave guitar, with nylon strings one
   octave high, in a drop D tuning.

   I have recreated this piece on a conventional guitar in open A tuning
   (E A E A C# E low to high), with a capo on the ninth fret.  You'll
   need some sort of cutaway acoustic to reach the upper frets.  Without
   a cutaway, you could try to transpose the piece by moving the capo
   (I opted to tab absolute fret numbers, rather than frets relative
   to the capo .. you can use a text editor to change your TAB).
   However, there is a seven fret stretch in the piece which may not
   be feasible on the lower frets.  Moreover, the higher pitch of this
   arrangement is key to its angelic atmosphere.

   The original Qualey arrangement is available on CD from Guitar Solo
   in San Francisco (# 415-386-7660 as of Sep, 95).  This, and other
   David Qualey arrangements may be found in his books "Guitar Solo"
   and/or "Classical Fingerstyle POP Classics".

      	    Tab by Tom Barclay (tom.barclay@delta.com)

       The piece is in 3/4 time, but it feels more like a 3/8 time.
Almost the entire thing is in triplets like the diagram below.  All of
the notes within each triplet are two spaces apart, and there are four
spaces between triplets, and three triplets per bar.

	   In the few places where the notes are not in groups of three
(example below), each single group of notes has the same time value as
one of the above triplets.

Please ignore the dots.  They're the only way I could fool the Bluewave
