A French Suite

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

Franzosische Suite-The French Suites were written in 1722. But it was not until Bach biographer Johann Forkel prepared an edition in the early nineteenth century that the pieces became known by the collective title French. It is true that Bach gave each of the dance movements a French title but it was Forkel who declared that they were 'written in the French taste with an emphasis on tunefulness and consonant harmony rather than German structure and counterpoint'.
