There's an episode of Sherlock Holmes where a chap plays the part of Sarasate playing the Bach Prelude in violin.

I would like to hear this in full by a more recent violinist. I have searched youtube but can only find a poor recording of the original Sarasate

Can anyone point me to a more recent version of better quality.

J.S.Bach is my favourite composer, and what you're after is one of my favourite pieces for solo instrument.

What you're after is Violin Partita #3 (BWV1006). Here is a recital of it by the very lovely Hilary Hahn:-

It translates well to solo guitar also:-

Thank you very much. That's just what I was looking for. The guitar is excellent.
