As an intermediateish guitarist coming to the Bach cello suites for the first time, I had recently started on this Prelude from BWV 1007 using the well-thought-of transcription by Valter Despalj. However, that edition doesn't contain quite enough guidance for players at my level - I still need more input, for example suggested right-hand fingering and the use of legato. Coming across the Werner edition, I found most of what I needed right there, but without excess.
I also found Bradford's video lesson on the Prelude, which includes a general approach to Bach and to the cello suites (a vast topic miraculously fitted into twenty minutes) hugely helpful as a way in, including developing an eye for implied counterpoint and learning to recognise the smallest units of melodic shape As he suggests, learning and living with these suites is a lifetime's undertaking.
As with all Werner editions, the score is beautifully clear and easy to read and Bradford includes just the right amount of information for an informed performance - while encouraging the player to take their own decisions on a sound basis. I trust Bradford and have used a number of his other sheet music publications.
So, when you have the time (!), please go on and publish editions of other movements of this cello suite - and from the other five. (Maybe even, eventually, a complete set, along with written notes on the basic points for approaching them as suggested in the lesson... just an idea. It would be a very helpful entry into these Suites for newcomers to them - and not only.)

Not only are these arrangements great for classical guitar, I also found the format very suitable for the piano and purely melodic instruments.

It’s a lovely piece of music and I’m getting on quite well with it. It took a while to get used to the low E string being tuned to D. Thank you Werner for the free sheet music.

Metodo sintetico ma completo per un buon inizio

More often we do not have much time to practice Christmas pieces. This book is ideal. These are easy to learn, fun to play and sound beautiful.

The quality of Bradford Werner's sheet music is consistently top-notch. I like the fact that it primarily features standard notation without tabs first, followed by a combination of standard notation with modern tablature. In particular, "Mr. Dowland's Midnight" is an accessible piece by Dowland transcribed for classical guitar but with tuning appropriate for capturing the delighful sound of the Renaissance lute, as carefully explained in the accompanying free video lesson. Bravo!

Dear Sir,

I am a Vietnamese. I am 58 years old. I am self-taught in classical guitar. I have been self‑studying classical guitar with Carulli’s Méthode de Guitare for about six months. Of course, it is a great book, but quite difficult to digest. Still, I try and persist in following it. However, to add more joy and motivation, I also learn from various YouTube channels that teach pieces in the classical guitar fingering style. Thankfully, I happened to discover the book Classical Guitar Technique. With delight and excitement, I have started studying with this book as well. I find it an invaluable comprehensive handbook of classical guitar technique, which is not included in any Classical Guitar Method Book I have ever known. This book systematically presents the essential techniques for classical guitar students, progressing from the basics to advanced skills, with meticulous guidance and engaging, visually clear video tutorials. Unless these techniques are fully mastered, classical guitar students or performers will be unable to convey the musicality and spirit of a classical composition.

I cannot express how grateful I am to the Author(s) and the Editorial Board of the Classical Guitar Technique. 

Best regards,
Nguyen

Zamboni is wonderful to play, both very elegant, even noble and very soft, lively. There are plenty of positions that are quite easy to play, melodic, and above all original. It's true, I admit that as soon as I'm with Zamboni, I start singing and it is very hard to put the guitar down. It's really very beautiful. Thank you for introducing me to this composer. For me, he is unique and therefore exceptional. As usual, sheet music and lessons are perfect.

I've been using Bradford's arrangements and method+technique books since 2022, and like all his other work, this arrangement is absolutely fantastic. I appreciate the detailed fingering very much, and the accompanying video that goes with most of his arrangements are always very informative and educational.

This particular arrangement (which I have just started working on, so I'm in the early stages still) is really beautiful and fun to play. Highly recommended for intermediate-level players.

Bradford's brilliant website with its amazing video lectures and advice are also a must for any guitar student.

Love how simple it is. Quick to learn in time for Christmas.

This is a truly outstanding collection. I tend to play the pieces above Grade 4 at a slightly slower tempo, because otherwise they would require a great deal more practice time for me. What is remarkable about Giuliani’s music is that it still sounds beautiful even when played more slowly.
I always follow Werner’s practice suggestions: first make sure the melody really sings. I even try to whistle the melody while playing, to internalize the musical feeling. Practicing the scales and identifying the underlying chords also helps to better understand the musical structure and theory behind the compositions.
As always, the fingerings are extremely effective and well thought out.
Werner, thank you!

I was so impressed with the contents of the Classical Guitar Method Volume 1 that I immediately bought Volume 2 and Classical Guitar Techniques, Essential Exercises Scales and Arpeggios. Thank you, Brad, for the free videos also that supplement these Volumes. I feel like I'm back on the right track to successfully learning to play the guitar.

All the lessons are clear and easy to follow. I’m impressed with the detailed guidance given in each piece…. No matter the level.

Nicely arpeggiated piece

Easy arrangement of a familiar classic that sounds very musical

Una bellissima raccolta di musiche ottimamente arrangiate per chitarra. Arrangiamenti che sanno coniugare semplicità e buon gusto, ho acquistato sia la versione PDF, sia la versione cartacea, in modo da averli sempre con me durante tutto il periodo natalizio.
