Another well-known classical piano piece of music is Passacaglia by George Friedrich Händel (1685-1759) HWV 432 and Johan Halvorsen (1864-1935). It is even more beautiful when played on classical guitar, as performed here by Boris Björn Bagger. This Nov 2020 live rehearsal in Ettlingen, Germany is also available on Spotify and Apple Music.

I later found a young Indonesian musician, Amy Evelyn (Amy Tapping), playing Passacaglia and Mariage d’Amour on a double neck electric guitar using a two-handed tapping technique. Impressive!
