Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Arranged by Luis Anjos Teixeira. Baroque,Christmas,Concert,Standards. Score. 10 pages. Luis Anjos Teixeira #4736137. Published by Luis Anjos Teixeira (A0.889432).

I found this Passacaglia from Bach among some of my own handwritten manuscripts. It is a phenomenal piece.

Bach was definitive a great artist, a Genius.

Passacaglia is an Italian word. This music form was originated in early 17th-century Spain as a strummed interlude between instrumentally accompanied dances or songs. In this piece we can clearly experience this „Spanish strumming" between „Bars 137 and 145".

The passacaglia was redefined in the late 1620s by Italian composer Girolamo Frescobaldi, who transformed it into a series of continuous variations over an ostinato bass pattern (which itself may be varied).

I added to this piece some interpretation symbols and rearranged it for the harp but every single note was left as it would be found in the original version. 

The piece is appropriate for advanced performers.

Most of the score is left to the interpretation of the artists involved, particularly the use of fingering. 

The piece is difficult but very Human. It requires focused endurance and some practice on certain passages. 

Once learned you will also be playing much better. 


Feel Free to apply in this piece the Art and technic that expresses entirely your individual skills and taste.

Have fun!

It is a piece that can be used in many different kinds of situations, from a serious concert hall to a marriage, it is perfect for Christmas celebrations and all other kinds of Spiritual events.

When performed Live It will give you back a great  feedback from the public, you will always want to have it in your repertoire.


The score was written on Finale.

The sound file is the version in D minor for a concert harp, it was produced with samplers from Garritan and conceived merely as an audio support for the presentation of this score.

Thank you very much for taking your time to read this text and to listen to the file.


I hope you have a lot of fun and enjoy the music.

Sheers!
