Johann Sebastian Bach’s three great cycles of suites belong to the fundamental canon of piano literature: the Partitas and the so-called English and French Suites. It is the French Suites that have long been by far the mostpopular and this was also the case at the time that they were written. However this also creates problems for an editor preparing an Urtext edition because a vast number of copies of them were made by Bach’s circle of pupils and these contain many presumably authentic variants. In this revised Henle Urtext edition Ullrich Scheideler explains the complicated source situation with exemplary clarity. He lists the more minor source variants in footnotes;where there are major differences both versions of individual movements are printed in full. Our opulent volume is rounded off with an appendix offering alternative and additional pieces. This Henle Urtext edition has beencompletely revised and also offers new fingerings. It enables pianists and Bach enthusiasts alike to re-discover Bach’s universe for themselves!

BWV 592 to 596-Johann Sebastian Bach is regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time. His music is revered for its technical command artistic beauty and intellectual depth. However during his lifetime Bach wasbest known throughout Europe as an organist Organ consultant and composer of Organ works. At a young age he established a reputation for his great creativity and ability to integrate foreign styles into his Organ works Bach copied the works of numerous French and Italian composers to gain insights into their compositional languages and later arranged violin concertos by Vivaldi and others for the Organ. Bach was extensivelyengaged later in his life in consulting on Organ projects testing newly built Organs and dedicating Organs in afternoon recitals.Five Concertos includes Concerto in G 'after Ernst' BWV 592 Concerto in A minor 'after Vivaldi' BWV 593 Concerto in C 'after Vivaldi' BWV 594 Concerto in C 'after Ernst' BWV 595 and Concerto in D minor 'after Vivaldi' BWV 596. A must-have collectionfor any organist!

From early in the 17th century until the form engaged the interest of Johann Sebastian Bach various notable German composers - including Rosenmüller Fischer Fasch and Telemann - had contributed to the development of the orchestral suite or 'Ouverture' which name betrays its French theatrical origins. From Bach himself only four such suites have come down to us due to the diligence of C.F.Penzel who was a student at the Thomasschule from 1751 and who made copies of Bach's MSS he found there. Thus neither the dates nor the order of composition of the suites can be established with any certainty. As to the present suite in B minor recent criticism suggests that Bach'sidiomatic flute writing in this popular suite would even in 1737 or later have been considered fashionably up-to-date even in Paris. It has also been suggested that the suite could have been written expressly for Pierre-Gabriel Buffardin principal flautist of the Dresden Court Orchestra.
