Toccaten und Fugen/Einzelwerke - mit CD-ROM-Bach: Complete Organ Works Vol. 4 - Toccatas (And Fugues) contains the famous D-minor Toccata BWV 565. The editor of this volume 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.The enclosed CD-ROM* contains early versions further ornamented versions and pieces that can clearly no longer be attributed to Bach.*Important Note for MAC usersThe version of the Edirom program delivered on CD can only run on Apple computers under the current operating system Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).The installation of the Bach volume on Intel-based 64-bit-capable processors with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) systems is only possible with an update which you can download here (c. 150 KB).Due to outdated Java versions older operating systems (Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger) unfortunately cannot be supported.

Preludes Toccatas Fantasias and Fugues II/Early Versions and Variants to I (Vol. 5) & II (Vol. 6)-Johann Sebastian Bach's 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 reassessmentof 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.

Eight Little Preludes And Fugues BWV 553-560 formerly ascribed to Johann Sebastian Bach. Although it has not been possible to identify the composer of the 'Eight Little Preludes And Fugues' Alfred Dürr writes in his preface to this edition 'Since the value of a musical work is in no way dependent pm whether the composer is known or not the hope remains that the delightful and appealing music of the Eight will find enthusiasts in the future despite the fact that they no longer fulfil their former task namely to introduce 'typically Bachian' elements to the future organists. The Eight definitely have their own value'.

Cantata for soloists choir and orchestra-Lobe den Herrn meine Seele (Praise thou the Lord o my spirit) BWV 143Little is known about the genesis of “Lobe den Herrn meine Seele” (Praise thou the Lord o my spirit BWV 143.A transcription from the 19th century was for a long time considered the only source; the musical text of the “New Bach Edition” was based on this material.  Recently however a copy of the score from 1762 has become available.  It offers a more reliable musical text rendering a complete revision of the cantata necessary.On the basis of this new source the work is presented here as part of the“New Bach Edition – Revised” in what is presumably its original form in C major with three trumpets.  This orchestration is more typical of Bach’s writing than the version for three horns in the surviving B-flat major version.

A wonderful collection of Bachs preludes and fugues that have been carefully edited by Bryan Hesford.

Orgelchoräle der Leipziger Handschrift-Volume 8 presents the important work group called the “Leipziger Chor?le.” Next to the late versions compiled and entered by Bach himself in the manuscript “P 271” all of the early versions with their sometimes widely divergent readings have also been edited here. The examination and evaluation of all relevant copies uncovered many a surprising new reading. Responsible for the new edition is the renowned organist and musicologist Jean-Claude Zehnder. An extensive introduction and highly commendable commentary round off this volume too. They also can be downloaded here. Next to a reliable musical text the highestimportance was placed once again on performance-practical aspects the results of which can be seen in the greater spaciousness for the notation and comfortable page turns. The enclosed CD-ROM contains more versions presented synoptically and for printing a facsimile of an early copy of BWV 664 and the English translation of the commentary.
