March 24, 200916 yr Fantastic piece. Really spectacular! I think Biber is pretty neat overall but this just takes the cake... though of course I'm referring to the famous section with the melodies, but hell it's just great he did that. Also check out Biber's extended techniques for strings, totally awesome stuff!
