Music

edit

Besides art, Williams is also a musician. Although not a prolific one, he has so far composed a Jig on classical guitar. However, his greatest accomplishment in music, he said in an interview, is a transcription of JS Bach’s Orchestral Suite No.2-Minuet also for the classical guitar. In the interview, he said: “I couldn’t find a guitar transcription of that piece on the internet. So I tried to transcribe it myself. It was fairly easy because the guitar has the same written range of notes as the clarinet about 3½ octaves starting from E below middle C. That minuet is not on clarinet though. It’s on flute.”
