21 Chorals du Dogme Prélude et Fugue en Mib-As one of the most famous contributors to classical music ever to have lived Johann Sebastian Bach's (1685-1750) catalogue is extensive. Moreover being an organist himself his Organ works are significant and remain ever-popular to this day. When French organist Marcel Dupr? (1886-1971) compiled the series of Bach's Complete Organ Works it was well-received and to this day remains popular with all organists. The eighth volume includes a favoured selection of Bach's works including 21 chorales and his Prelude and Fugue in E flat. In addition Dupr?'s annotations in CompleteOrgan Works comprise fingerings rules on technique and instructions on ornamentation among other aspects. This compilation of J. S. Bach's most loved compositions for the Organ cannot be missed by aspiring performers of the instrument.

BWV997-The purpose of the series if Bach was a cellist is to live the fantasy that everything Bach wrote he wrote for the cello. It may also serve as a way for cellists to get close to Bach through works other than the six solo suites and the three gamba sonatas.I first came across the Partita by Johann Sebastian Bach in a version for flute and strings beautifully recorded by Kurt Redel. Since my early teens it has been on my list of special pieces.The four movements show extraordinary variation. In the hands of Bach the key of C minor becomes particularly powerful of limitless weight sometimes even stern. Is there an opening of a movement from the baroqueera which compares with power of the first movement here? It is a magni-ficent example of musical temperament.Three 18th century manuscripts survive. One found among the papers of C.Ph.E.Bach and two by Johann Philipp Kirnberger a student of J.S.Bach. All three are in the form of a keyboard sonata. Because of the choice of register however one may ask whether they are in turn arrangements of an original composition for solo flute or solo violin. The Double is very pianistic and may therefore have been added later. For all movements except the Fugue I have supplied a piano part for the right hand.

In response to a continued interest in a scholarly facsimile of the Mass in B minor a new cloth-bound facsimile edition (BVK 2194) has now been published. This replaces the original BÄRENREITER FACSIMILE edition (BVK 1911).Johann Sebastian Bach completed the Mass in B minor in 1748/49 shortly after the Art of Fugue and shortly before his death. This late work is as concentrated and rich in compositional technique as scarcely any other work. As early as 1818 Hans-Georg Nägeli enthusiastically described the Mass as the 'greatest musical artwork of all time and all nations”. Since then it has been ranked as an icon of music history.One of the primary functions of a facsimile is the preservation of such a cultural heritage particularly when the manuscript (as is the case with the Mass in B minor) is endangered and damaged by iron gall ink erosion. Furthermore it is moving for Bach admirers to see how in some passages Bach’s handwriting reflects the effort which this last work demanded of him.The facsimile documents and records the present condition of the complete autograph score. Older reproductions have substituted a few individual folios where the content has become difficult to read in recent years.The renowned Bach scholar Christoph Wolff describes the work’s significance in his introduction gives an overview of the history of composition and draws attention to particular distinguishing features of the manuscript.'This facsimile edition is a model for the presentation of musical sources both in appearance and in documentation. […] Wolff's facsimile will serve as foundational tools'(Notes December 2008)'Once Bach came up against the boundaries of his art on blotchy 260-year-old paper. ‘Et expecto…’ is this point in the B minor mass ‘And I look for the resurrection of the dead.’ Bach wrote modulations which were extraordinary. He had to strive for these. He crossed out – although this is a fair copy – hatched and scratched until the paper tore. He was already an old man his script leans to the left. The handwriting here isn’t nearly as lively as in the ‘Cum

Organ Chorales from the Neumeister Collection-Organ Chorales from the Neumeister CollectionYale University Manuscript 'LM 4708'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.
