"Prelude #1 was originally written as an exercise for Bach's
students and is probably one of the most famous preludes from
"The Well-Tempered Clavier". In this exercise you can explore
more on the plucking pattern "ppimaima" and how to make your
guitar flow.
Technique:
For the Right hand, it is pretty straight forward "ppimaima"
going at a constantly speed. ppimaima consists of 8 successive
notes plucked from the fingers. You cannot play this song with
a pick no matter how awesome you are. For the Left hand,
it takes some practise. Since this is a piano piece, it
translates onto the guitar fairly kindly except for 2
monster chords I have marked in asterisk. Make absolutely
sure you suspend the first 2 bass notes at all times.
Tip:
Prelude consists of a series of arpeggio's. You now know
arpeggios and patterns like "ppimaima" go together. Explore
further by playing any chords you like with appreggios.

The first bar seems awkward but it sets up
for the 2nd difficult bar nicely.

Tuning:D A D G B E
Capo:no capo
for some measures (e.g. 15, 31).
Colon(s) : above a note will indicate that you should use your finger
barré-like (e.g. laying it over more than one string, much like a capo
[or a "partial capo"]). For some measures I indicated you should keep
the barré finger in that position for the following measure(s).
In one measure (#22), you should to use your thumb (T); this fingering is
quite awkward, but I couldn't find a better one in which you can have the
lowest note ringing, which I deem important there.
Additionally, I named the chords the plucked notes make up above the tab.
Dropped d-Tuning seemed suitable to me (low to high: D A D G B E)
All fingerings are suggestions I feel quite comfy with.
Funny tip: instead of rattling that piece off boringly like it's heard
everywhere (e.g. pronounced on 1 and 5, or not pronounced at
all), try pronouncing the notes on beats 1, 4 and 7, with a
pseudo-triplet feel. When doing this, prononce the two measures
before the last like indicated by >. Sounds really interesting!
