Thanks to my wonderful, patient wife for acting in the video. The full recording “Sei Solo, Works by J.S. Bach“ is now streaming on all major platforms. Spotify ➡️ PRESS “Bach-Godowski, Bach-Busoni, Bach-Leonhardt. And now, Bach-Mearns, for no transcription of Bach deserves a hyphen more than the guitar transcription presented here.“ - Mark Delpriora, Manhattan School of Music / Juilliard School “…..a revelation, Mearns reveals himself a singular artist of extraordinary imagination…truly a next-generation phenomenon. “ - Stephen Aron, Oberlin Conservatory of Music “If you think you’ve heard Bach on the guitar, think again!“ - Rene Izquierdo, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee “Mearns’ virtuosic recording is a thrilling adventure for the hands and ears…reminding us of how exciting the guitar can be as a solo instrument when it suggests something greater than itself.“ - Jonathan Leathwood, University of Denver, Editor Soundboard Scholar “Alan Mearns is undoubtedly a virtuoso guitarist, yet he is more than that. Alan is a creative soul with a vast imagination and refined musicianship. His transcriptions of Bach are a beautiful glimpse into his creative world.” - Bill Piburn, editor Fingerstyle Guitar Journal
