Duet Play-Along: Minuet by Petzold from Method Vol.1

Minuet in G by Christian Petzold (1677-1733) – From J.S. Bach’s Notenbuch der Anna Magdalena Bach. – Duet Play-Along Video for beginner guitar from my Free Classical Guitar Method Volume 1. I’ll play the duet with Natasha and then play the student part with counting, then the teacher part with counting, and finally the teacher part without counting so you can play along. Using the YouTube Link might be easier for skipping back for retries. B

Big thanks to Natasha Pashchenko for helping with the duets. Natasha is an excellent guitarist, teacher, and friend from Victoria, BC.

Below is the old video of just the performance duet. The Minuet by Krieger is no longer in the book so just ignore it.

Love, love, love, ‘Minuet in G’ which is still ahead of me in my lessons. Can’t wait to be able to play it. Right now I play ‘A Lovers Concerto’ in chords to sing along with as I love the more contemporary version as well. Loved the video thanks so much!
