Re: J. S. Bach The Cello Suites for Mandolin
Hi Daniel, et. al.
I am new to the mandolin and have never seen tabulature before. So my question is . . . If you have never heard the piece before, how do you know how long to hold each note? Yes, there is no guesswork about which string or fret to use for the note, but how long is it in duration? My second question is: Why tabulature? It's not as good as having the music and the composers don't write in tabulature. Not trying to rile anyone, I just don't understand its purpose.
