Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. In this volume with the Toccatas (and Fugues) as well as individual works the Swiss organist Jean-Claude Zehnder has amply proven his mettle as a Bach specialist here. Of particular interest in this book is the Canzona in d BWV 588. Written before 1707, this early work is found in a contemporary copy by Johann Gottlieb Preller with embellishments, fingerings and a closing cadenza - this version is printed in the Appendix. Similarly, the print of the early version of the Passacaglia BWV 582 is likely to meet with great interest. Online you will find early versions, further ornamented versions, and pieces that can no longer be attributed to Bach as the Kleines harmonisches Labyrinth BWV 591 and the Prelude in G BWV 568./ Recueil / Orgue

Organ Chorales From The Neumeister Collection Yale University Manuscript 'Lm 4708'. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. In 1985 Christoph Wolff, working at Yale University, discovered a collection of 82 chorales compiled by Johann Gottfried Neumeister (1756-1840) which contained 38 compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach. They reveal great stylistic variety whose forebears stem from the Northern German organ tradition. Already these early works comprising fantasias, fugues, fughettas and imitative techniques employing motifs from chorale melodies bear witness to Bach' s broad compositional spectrum. This newly published volume is an updated edition of Series IV/9 of the ' New Bach Edition” (NBA), edited by Christoph Wolff and based on this source. In addition to a newly added concordance and corrections to the musical text, it also contains a detailed Foreword by Christoph Wolff with further information on the Neumeister Collection and hymnological details. The source of the complete Neumeister Collection has recently been made available on ' Bach digital”, shedding light on the manuscript for the very first time. Links to major sources have been provided in collaboration with the Bach Leipzig Archive and its database ' Bach digital”. The desired page of the source can be accessed quickly and conveniently via URLs at http://links.baerenreiter.com. The links stored there are examined for their validity on a regular basis. Any complete scholarly critical edition of the works of Johann Sebastian Bach must incorporate new research findings in the interest of scholars and performers alike. Now all of Bärenreiter' s new performing editions of Bach' s organ works are being revised to reflect the current state of scholarship and to convey maximum fidelity to the sources by being linked to ' Bach digital”. - Links to relevant sources in ' Bach digital” - Detailed new Foreword about the Neumeister Collection by Christoph Wolff (Ger/Eng) - Complete new engraving/ Répertoire / Orgue

Trois grands cycles de suites de Johann Sebastian Bach comptent parmi les pièces maîtresses de la littérature de clavier: les Partitas ainsi que les Suites anglaises et françaises. Sur l'échelle de popularité, les Suites françaises l'emportent de très loin sur les autres - et il en était déjà ainsi du temps de leur création. Le revers de la médaille pour l'éditeur Urtext: un nombre presque incalculable de copies issues du cercle des élèves de Bach qui transmettent de nombreuses variantes probablement authentiques. Ullrich Scheideler présente avec une clarté exemplaire la complexité des sources dans cette édition Henle-Urtext révisée. Les petites variantes provenant des sources sont reproduites dans des notes en bas de page - en présence de grandes divergences, les mouvements en question sont reproduits en deux versions. Une annexe avec des pièces alternatives ou additionnelles complète cette somptueuse édition. À l'aide de cette publication Urtext de Henle entièrement révisée, pianistes et amateurs de Bach peuvent redécouvrir l'univers de Bach! / Piano

2 Pieces Arranged for 5-String Banjo-The banjo shares many of the same sonic qualities as a harpsichord so although it's so closely associated with more homespun genres the instrument actually lends itself very well to classical music! The pieces in Bach for Banjo are in tablature only with chord symbols arranged at the beginning to intermediate level for five-string banjo players. As in classical guitar arrangements the melody and harmony are combined. Most pieces are on facing pages with no page turns required and beginners can pick through the selections at a slow pace. The book features just the best-known parts of 20 beloved Bach pieces: Air on the G String · Arioso · Minuet in G · Sheep May Safely Graze· Sleepers Awake · and more.

Par MANTOVANI BRUNO. Par le poids de sa riche histoire et l'immensité de son répertoire, le quatuor à cordes est devenu, au cours des temps, une formation mythique, abordée par les compositeurs avec un mélange d'enthousiasme et de méfiance. Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Schumann, Bartok, Shostakovitch, et tant d'autres ont écrit d'innombrables chefs d'oeuvre pour cet instrumentarium qui, parce qu'il réunit intimité, homogénéité, et virtuosité, est propice à l'expérimentation. Ecrire pour quatuor est aujourd'hui un exercice très délicat, et ce n'est pas sans crainte que j'ai décidé d'aborder le genre en 2000. Un cycle a commencé à naître à cette période, cycle toujours incomplet en 2005. Bleu (2002) est une courte pièce énergique, jouant sur une disposition spatiale singulière des musiciens (les instrumentistes se faisant face). Du déferlement au jeu d'échos, ce mouvement repose sur une conception 'démocratique' de l'ensemble, la matière musicale étant plus fondée sur un flux cohérent que sur la hiérarchie entre un soliste et des accompagnateurs. Les fées (2004, création mondiale): il s'agit là d'un véritable scherzo, laissant la part belle à une écriture procédurale. J'ai commencé à m'intéresser depuis peu à cette dimension de l'écriture (avec Le cycle des gris pour orchestre baroque, ou avec Da Roma pour trio), afin de sortir d'une conception du langage fondée systématiquement sur le conflit entre des idées contrastées. La transformation progressive d'un élément en un autre est ici le maître mot, alors que la matière musicale subit ou des procédés d'accumulation, ou de raréfaction. L'ivresse (2003): il s'agit d'une musique de ballet, violemment contrastée, aride, virtuose. Le discours s'articule autour de quelques idées facilement repérables à l'écoute (unisson dans l'aigu, homorythmies...). Au milieu de cet océan d'incertitude et d'imprévisibilité, une séquence plus procédurale vient établir une continuité, toujours dans l'énergie, qui donne à la matière un caractère encore plus abrupt. BWV 1007 (2001): première pièce du cycle sur le plan chronologique, ce mouvement est un hommage à la Première suite de violoncelle de Jean-Sébastien Bach. Le modèle est ici toujours présent, mais sans cesse déformé, développé, si bien qu'il est pratiquement impossible de le reconnaître. Ici, le quatuor est traité de façon plus orchestrale, non dans la masse sonore, mais dans les hiérarchies, chacun des instruments prenant à tour de rôle la parole de façon soliste. Malgré la présence permanente dans mon esprit des grands modèles de l'histoire, j'ai essayé de conserver une certaine spontanéité dans mon écriture. C'est l'intuition qui a élaboré le discours, non la prédétermination. La matière a pris l'ascendant sur l'artisanat, s'exprimant malgré moi, de façon quasi-autonome.

Bach, Johann Sebastian Organ Works, Volume 6 Preludes, Toccatas, Fantasias and Fugues II / Early Versions and Variants to I (Volume 5) and II (Volume 6) Editor Kilian, Dietrich / Wollny, Peter Johann Sebastian Bach: Complete Organ Works in revised editions Any complete scholarly critical edition of the works of Johann Sebastian Bach must incorporate new research findings in the interest of scholars and performers alike. Now all of Bärenreiter's new performing editions of Bach's organ works are being revised to reflect the current state of scholarship and to convey maximum fidelity to the sources by being linked to 'Bach digital'. The present volume is an updated edition of Series IV, Volume 6 of the 'New Bach Edition' (NBA), prepared by Dietrich Kilian in 1964. The discovery of new sources and a reassessment of existing handwritten copies have brought about changes to the contents of the volume, which now includes the 'Fantasia in C minor' (BWV 1121), the 'Fantasia in G major' (BWV 571), the 'Fugue in G major' (BWV 577) and the C major version of the 'Toccata and Fugue in E major' (BWV 566). On the other hand, the 'Prelude in G major' (BWV 568) as well as the alternative versions of the 'Fugue in C minor' (BWV 574a) and the 'Prelude in A major' (BWV 536a) have been discarded as presumably spurious. Besides the new compilation and corrections of the musical text, the volume also contains a detailed Foreword by Peter Wollny with observations on each work and the extant sources. Page turns have been re-examined and improved. In collaboration with the Bach Archive Leipzig and its 'Bach' digital database, links are provided to all the major sources.

Bach: Complete Organ Works Vol. 6 Clavierübung III / Schübler-Choräle / Canonische Veränderungen über 'Vom Himmel hoch' - ed. by Werner Breig Bach Organ Works Printed During the Composer's Lifetime Volume 6 contains the chorale-related organ works that Bach personally had printed: the Dritte Theil der Clavier Übung was published (for organists) in 1739; the Sechs Choräle von verschiedener Art (Schübler-Choräle) and the Canonische Veränderungen were released in separate editions most likely in 1747/48. None of these collections had from the start the appearance which the composer considered as valid in the end. For this reason, Werner Breig focuses in particular on questions of origin in his introduction. Fundamental findings on the genesis of the Clavier Übung III were made only after the publication of the work in the Neue Bach-Ausgabe. The basically unproblematic state of the sources means that this volume contains no CD-ROM with supplementary materials. It was, however, considered editorially necessary to print the Canonische Veränderungen BWV 769 in three versions: as a facsimile of the original print, in a practical arrangement, and in the autograph version (BWV 769a).

In 1739 Bach's Third Part of the Clavier Übung was published on 80 pages closely printed. Ever since then the collection has been regarded as a high point in the history of organ composition as it offers an impressive cross section of Bach's artistry.This present volume is an updated edition of Volume 4, Series IV, of the New Bach Edition, presented by Manfred Tessmer in 1969. A fully revised edition proved unnecessary, as there were relatively few corrections affecting the musical text. However, the volume now includes a detailed Preface by Christoph Wolff which discusses not only the work's genesis but also offers an up-to-date description of the sources. For the new engraving of the musical text page-turns were reviewed and improved.Bach's autograph is considered lost and so the main source is the original print of the collection from 1739. In collaboration with the Leipzig Bach Archive and its database Bach digital this new edition includes links to two important copies of the original print which contain hand-written entries by Bach himself.Any complete scholarly-critical edition of the works of Johann Sebastian Bach must, in the interest of its use by researchers and performers, incorporate intervening new discoveries wherever possible. With this in mind, Bärenreiter has entered an agreement with the Leipzig Bach Archive to reissue particular volumes as applicable, either in updated performing editions based on the New Bach Edition or in thoroughly revised editions based on the New Bach Edition - revised. In this way, each new performing edition will represent the cutting edge of research.Further hallmarks of this new generation of Urtext editions will be detailed, up-to-date Prefaces and newly engraved musical texts with optimum page turns. Each volume will list incipits with links to the relevant manuscripts in Bach digital thereby enabling the user to gain quick access to the sources.-With altered readings integrated into the musical text taking into account new musicological evidence-With a new Preface (Ger/Eng) discussing this work and its sources by Christoph Wolff-With links to the relevant sources in Bach digital via http://links.baerenreiter.com-Newly engraved and with improved page turns-Format: 24cm x 30.5cm / Orgue
