The complete Bach organ works: A new generation of Urtext editions
Bärenreiter is launching a new generation of Urtext editions for Bach’s complete organ works based on the New Bach Edition (NBA) and the New Bach Edition-Revised (NBArev). The hallmarks will be detailed up-to-date prefaces and a newly engraved musical text with optimum page turns. A new feature will be links to the relevant autograph manuscripts in Bach Digital thereby ensuring quick access to the sources. This series of new Urtext editions are scheduled for completion in 2015 and will form the standard benchmark for this music. The first edition in the new series represents the revised second printing of the New Bach Edition volume BA 5033 (Series IV: Organ Works, Volume 4) as published in 2012. A new foreword by Christoph Wolff delves in detail into each work included in the volume, discussing the available sources and the current state of research. The edition draws on contemporary sources, which are used to describe details of performance practice. Links are provided to respective scholarly studies and the relevant autograph copies in Bach Digital.
