Sylvius Leopold Weiss was one of the most important and most prolific composers of lute music in history and one of the best-known and most technically accomplished lutenists of his day. This Gigue is from a transcription for guitar by Michael Lorimer of Sonata 34 in E minor written originally for the Lute by S.L. Weiss in 1720.

Dear Rick, (if you posted this yourself)
Beautifully played! I love your trills and ornaments. In the higher positions the guitar (strings) sounds almost as a lute! Great!

Hard to say if it's Rick indeed, though email looks to be authentic. Certainly it's not anyone from Veojam Team. This doesn't change the fact that video and music is great. Hopefully the owner will reply soon.

Beautifully played. Weiss is one of the most underrated musicians of Baroque, even if his reputation as a composer and virtuoso was comparable to Bach in his time.
