Probably following a special Leipzig tradition, Bach added four extra movements to the first version of his Magnificat BWV 243a (in E flat major); these can be inserted in performances of the Magnificat at Christmas between the verses of the Magnificat. These are included in our edition transposed down a semitone, so that they can be performed with the widely-known later version of the Magnificat in D BWV 243. In addition to the separate publication of these movements, they are now being published as part of a newly-corrected complete score. Score available separately - see item CA.3124300.
