BachScholar Editions Vol. 16 – BACH GOES ROMANTIC:10 Four-Part Chorales Arranged (Volume 1) (36 pages) was born out of 19th century romantic-style improvisations on selected four-part chorales by J.S. Bach. These arrangements transform Bach’s short chorales into beautiful and idiomatic concert pieces for piano while fully retaining the chorales’ original melodies and harmonies. The ten pieces have been assembled in a strategic order so that they may be played in succession as an effective concert cycle. In addition, they may be played singly or in pairs and groups as the performer sees fit. A complete performance lasts approximately 38 minutes. This collection is ideal for piano students, teachers, and concert artists who seek fresh, new, and creative material for study and performance. Published by: BachScholar Publishing, LLC.

BachScholar Editions Vol. 78: J.S. BACH: Sinfonia from Cantata 29 (trans. Saint-Saëns) (9 pages) presents arguably the finest romantic-era piano transcription of Bach’s exciting Sinfonia from Cantata 29, which Bach reworked from his previously composed PreludioV from Partita No. 3 for Solo Violin. The once child prodigy and musical genius, Camille Saint-Saëns (1835-1921), pulled out all the stops on this electrifying virtuoso piano transcription of Bach’s famous work, which was first published in 1862. The present performance edition improves upon the currently existing edition by supplying ample fingerings, pedaling and expression indications, as well as a suggested metronome speed. Advanced pianists, concert artists, and audiences will absolutely love this first-rate virtuoso transcription in the romantic tradition. Published by: BachScholar.

BachScholar Edition Vol. 48 – Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring (4 pages) presents a rich, romantic-style concert arrangement of Bach’s famous chorale setting from Cantata No. 147. The most well-known piano version, by Myra Hess, is a literal transcription from the cantata, which not only presents several awkward and difficult technical challenges, but can easily sound dry and technical on the modern piano. Hall’s arrangement is refreshingly different and original and less difficult to play than Hess’ version, making it more accessible to pianists and listeners. Hall transcribes Jesu to the lush, romantic key of D-flat major, which results in a deeper sound (a tri-tone lower than the original G major) and is easier to play and has more idiomatic fingerings due to the use of all five black keys. Hall’s arrangement is ideal for the teaching studio and concert hall for all grades from the intermediate through concert level. Piano Published by: BachScholar.

The Bach-Archiv in Leipzig was the scene of a colloquium of renowned international experts in fall 2005: musicologists, editorial directors, archivists and performing artists got together to discuss how the music of Bach was disseminated in the first half of the 19th century. Several major composers played a key role in triggering the new appreciation of Bach and his music at this time: Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, his sister Fanny Hensel and Robert Schumann. These three Romantic Bachians instigated developments that continue to affect concert life and editorial practice today. Our modern-day Bach image was heavily formed by their multi-faceted, fruitful activity. The Leipzig Bach-Archiv has meticulously edited this book of 24 essays as a concrete result of the colloquium and a source of new impulses for future research and musical practice. Insgesamt ein mit vielen verbluffenden Details und treffenden Generalabhandlungen gefullter Band, den man mit gehorigem Gewinn liest. (Wolfram Goertz, Bach-Magazin) Dank dieses weiteren Horizonts wird nicht nur der Musikwissenschaftler aus diesem sehr ordentlich redigierten Band mannigfach Gewinn ziehen, sondern auch der Musikinteressierte auf seine Kosten kommen.

BachScholar Editions Vol. 80: J.S. BACH: Sinfonia from Cantata 29: Etude on One Staff with Two Hands (5 pages) presents a unique and accessible transcription of Bach’s exciting Sinfonia from Cantata 29, which Bach reworked from his previously composed Preludio from Partita No. 3 for Solo Violin. The present edition notates Bach’s original solo in the treble clef played with alternating hands: stems up = R.H. and stems down = L.H. Sharing the solo between the two hands results in a difficulty half that of romantic, virtuoso transcriptions that add chords and accompaniment material in the bass clef. This unique transcription offers pianists Grades 5 and up a fun and rewarding study which fosters evenness of touch and tone and explores innovative fingerings and hand crossings. This transcription of Bach’s exciting Sinfonia from Cantata 29 has something for everyone — piano students, teachers, and concert artists alike! Published by: BachScholar.

VOL. 52 – Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring in Major & Minor (8 pages) presents two rich, romantic-style concert arrangements of Bach’s famous chorale setting from Cantata No. 147. The most well-known piano version, by Myra Hess, is a literal transcription from the cantata, which not only presents several awkward and difficult technical challenges, but can easily sound dry and technical on the modern piano. Hall’s first arrangement in D-flat major is refreshingly different and original and less difficult to play than Hess’ version, making it more accessible to pianists by using more idiomatic fingerings and employing all five black keys. The second setting presents the same rich, romantic-style concert arrangement but in D minor instead of D-flat major. This minor-key version is strikingly expressive and original, which is guaranteed to mesmerize performers and listeners. Both major and minor-key arrangements of Bach’s famous Jesu are ideal for the teaching studio and concert hall for all grades from the intermediate through concert level.Piano Published by: BachScholar.

BachScholar Edition Vol. 50 – Jesu in D Minor (the saddest of all keys) (4 pages) presents a rich, romantic-style concert arrangement in D minor of Bach’s famous chorale setting from Cantata No. 147. Essentially the same as Hall’s arrangement of Jesu in D-flat major, this minor-key version is strikingly expressive and original, which is extremely mesmerizing to performers and listeners. Ideal for the teaching studio and concert hall for all grades from the intermediate through concert level. Piano Published by: BachScholar.
