RE: Sonic Groove Live, Week 1, cover (?), Christian Gotthilf Tag, Was Gott tuth
I think the term cover is tied more to a ‘song’. Nice to hear another rendition of this piece again 🤓

Fact is, as classical musicians we're not used to think in terms of original or cover. Would a jazz musician call his improvisation on an existing tune or song a cover?
The rules of the contest are more fit for pop songs than for other types of music.
That's true! Can you play Bach's cover of the BWV 565 please?
If there were a cover by Bach of BWV 565 that would mean he didn't compose it.
Which is actually what musicologists think nowadays: Bach did not compose his most famous organ work, somebody else did (with J. P. Kellner as a likely candidate).
