ByBradford Werner
2017

Canadian guitarist Jeffrey McFadden performs his arrangement of the Prelude & Gigue from the 4th Cello Suite BWV1010 by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). Recorded by Canadian guitarist/producer Drew Henderson at Church of St. Mary Magdalene in Toronto. This comes via McFadden’s fantastic Youtube channel. Canada’s top guitarist, recording artist, and educator, McFadden’s playing never disappoints. Nice articulation in the prelude which he keep consistent throughout before the driving gigue. You can check out his Naxos recordings which are amazing. A nice heads up to Victoria, Canada luthier Marcus Dominelli for the nice guitar as well.
