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.

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. 18 – Toccata & Fugue in D Minor, BWV 565 (10 pages) presents Bach’s famous organ work in a highly idiomatic piano transcription. More of a literal transcription than an arrangement, this version remains true to Bach’s original organ score, which makes it accessible to the average pianist. (In contrast, the Busoni and Tausig arrangements are too difficult for most pianists.) Ideal for pianists from the late-intermediate levels and higher as well as concert artists and teachers who seek an exciting and authentic transcription of Bach for the concert hall or teaching studio. Includes tempo indications and fingering. Published by: BachScholar Publishing, LLC.

The volume also includes an introduction from the editor plus a table of contents with historical information about the hymn tunes and their first performances in Bach’s cantatas. Ideal for piano and organ teachers and students, as well as for theory and keyboard classes at the college level. Published by: BachScholar.

Two manuscript collections survive from the estate of Johann Sebastian Bach's second wife, Anna Magdalena. One of these dates from 1722, and one from 1725. The music they contain is very varied: alongside Johann Sebastian's own pieces there are dance and song movements that can be ascribed to his contemporaries, and also works of doubtful authorship.This publication includes the instrumental pieces from the two collections that do not feature in sets of pieces such as the French Suites. The editors have not added performance indications to the musical text, and fingering is suggested only in the more difficult passages.This publication features in the Hungarian curriculum forpreliminary level education in the arts. The pieces can be used as teaching material in the third and fourth years of learning the piano.
