|
| TAB: Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring (J.S. Bach)
|
| Arranged by Jeff Johnson from sheet music.
|
| Standard tuning, key of G, ¾ time.
|
| The melody consists of triplet eighth-notes, nine/measure, except where
|
| Marked as duplets (_2_), i.e., 2 notes/beat instead of three. |
| The
|
| Bassline consists of quarter notes, three/measure.
|
| Written inline, without repeats, because each time through a section is
|
| Slightly different. |
| E.g., the first few notes of Verses 2 and 3 differ
|
| >from those of Verse 1, the last measure of Chorus 3 differs from those
|
| Of Choruses 1 and 2, and the last note of Verse 3 (which leads to the
|
| Bridge) differs from the last note of Verse 1. I thought it would be
|
| Too complicated to try to indicate in a single tab of a section what to
|
| Play on each different time through that section.
|
| Crucial fingerings are marked when not obvious, e.g., (3).
|
| Verse 1 (2)

| (I skip the G arpeggio this

| |---------2p0---0---| |
| time, and cut straight to
|
| |-2---------------4-| |
| the chorus, but one could
|
| |-3-----4-----5-----| |
| play it again, if desired.)
