I had the pleasure of seeing Hopkinson Smith play in Berkeley earlier this
year. The Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin are among my favorite Bach
works and Hopkinson Smith has created a rich and enjoyable Lute
transcription of these works. I highly recommend this recording. There are
some MP3's of a couple of tracks available at http://www.hopkinsonsmith.com/
