Bach Concerto No. 6 BWV 1057

If it can be played on guitar, it would be badass and wow any ears. I don't play, but it looks like it might be good training.

It would be an eargasm on electric for sure.

That was 15 years ago.

Since then I have explored composing electronic music with a mouse and keyboard.
I pushed that away after about a year (cramps & pain again).
Still have the programs but its really time consuming.
Noteworthy Composer was the best but LMM was pretty easy to use.

Yeah, Animusic is amazing.

I have this fantasy thought that the Universe is so big and so old and will last so long that eventually everything will come to pass.
I like to imagine somewhere in the Universe there is aliens with the technology to create these musical wonders we can only imagine in a computer.
In their city domes there are constructs like this playing music for their people. Completely self motivated.

Here's a room I'd love to visit...

You might get a kick out of this:

Virtual guitar
http://www.musicca.com/guitar

Use your computer keyboard or click on the guitar strings to play the guitar. The four rows of keys on your keyboard correspond to four lowest strings on the guitar. Hold down the shift key and use the top two rows on your keyboard to play the two top strings.

Click "Highlight" above the guitar to show note names. Click "Sounds" to choose between different guitar sounds. Click "Mark" to mark notes on the fretboard when clicking on them. Hold down the alt key on your keyboard to mark notes with ♯ instead of ♭. Play the marked notes by clicking "Strum" or by pressing the spacebar on your keyboard.

You can save your markings on the guitar by copying the web address in your browser window. This also allows you to share your markings with others. For example, here is a C major seventh chord and an E major scale.

Online guitar tuner

Click the "Tuner" button to activate the tuner. Click the first string you want to tune and play the similar string on your guitar so that the two notes sound at the same time.

If your string is slightly out of tune, you will hear a pulsating sound between the two notes. As you tune the string, the pitches get closer and closer and the pulsation slows down. When the two notes match perfectly, the pulsation will cease and the two notes sound as one.

Realistic acoustic guitar sound
This virtual acoustic guitar simulator plays the sounds of a real acoustic guitar with each single note recorded individually in a professional studio. Use an amplifier with good loudspeakers for a real-life acoustic guitar sound.

There are three ways to play single notes:

click on the guitar fretboard to immediately hear the associated guitar note even without strumming the string;
click on the piano keyboard — it will also play acoustic guitar;
click a string button to produce a single note according to how the string is pressed on the fretboard.

There are five ways to play guitar chords:

click the buttons indicating all the 12 major chords (F,G,C,etc.), all the 12 minor chords (Fm,Gm,Cm,etc.) and all the 12 dominant seventh chords (F7,G7,C7,etc.);
press computer keyboard keys to play these major, minor and dominant seventh chords (e.g. Caps Lock plays F major, Tab plays D minor);
click each string on the fretboard to set a chord and then either strum the strings with the mouse or click STRUM or press the spacebar;
once the fretboard is set for a chord click keep chord to create a custom-made chord button, which can be clicked or triggered with a user-defined computer keyboard key;
click keyboard chord to indicate a chord on the piano keyboard and then click it once again to create a custom-made chord button.

Record and playback
You can record anything played by this virtual guitar and play it back at will. To start and stop recording check and uncheck the box RECORD. A playback button will appear automatically. You can have many playback buttons: each with its own recording. You can even play back more than one recording at the same time while making another recording to combine them.
Save your work
Your recordings and your custom chords are stored as buttons which can be dragged around to shift position. You can save all your buttons as a text file to your hard drive and then load this file later. Each button can be renamed and configured to be triggered by any key from the computer keyboard. You can program your computer keyboard so that each key plays a custom chord or a playback recording and then save the layout for later. The ready-made chord buttons can be dragged and dropped onto the area for user buttons to be further edited there.

Also a Virtual Piano

How about Landslide (Fleetwood Mac) or She Talks To Angels (Black Crowes)?
Both would be awesome on acoustic I think!
