Johann Sebastian Bach's two-part inventions were an integral part of the study literature used in the composer's Piano lessons. And they are still just as important today. For Piano pupils there is no getting away from them for their basic demands 'to learn to play in tune' and 'to play in a cantabile style' are still valid. The musical text is based on the new Wiener Urtext edition of all of Bach's Inventions and Sinfonias edited by Ulrich Leisinger which keeps very close to the original manuscript of the composer. In the present edition the two-part inventions have been taken from the complete edition and published separately thusmaking them ideal for Piano lessons.

New Urtext Edition-The Inventions and Sinfonias BWV 772–801 also known as the Two- and Three-Part Inventions are a collection of thirty short keyboard compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750): 15 inventions which are two-part contrapuntal pieces and 15 sinfonias which are three-part contrapuntal pieces. They were originally written as musical exercises for his students.

?Révérence à Jean-Sebastien Bach? pour commémorer le 300e anniversaire de sa naissance (1685-1985)J'ai rencontré Henri Sauguet au début des années 1980. J'avais pris l'habitude d'aller le visiter régulièrement à son domicile du 36 rue la Bruyère à Paris dans le 9e arrondissement, jusqu'à sa disparition, pendant cette nuit du 21 au 22 juin 1989. J'avais en projet l'enregistrement de ses oeuvres pour guitare ainsi que deux oeuvres de Georges Migot, qu'il avait bien connu. Il me fit le plaisir d'écrire à cette occasion une cadence pour guitare seule qui est arrivée par voix postale chez moi, le 3 septembre 1985, jour de mon anniversaire. Entre temps, la célèbre ?Revue Musicale? lui avait demandé également d'écrire une oeuvre en hommage à Johann-Sebastian Bach pour le tricentenaire de sa naissance (1685-1985). Cette oeuvre devait être crée au Festival international de Violoncelle de Massy-Verrières. Henri a donc souhaité à cette occasion écrire cette oeuvre pour violoncelle et guitare ?Révérence à Jean-Sebastien Bach?. Il n'y pas de pastiche de l'oeuvre du cantor et c'est bien une oeuvre d'Henri Sauguet, fidèle à son écriture, souple et inventive, qui alterne les tempos lent et plus ou moins rapides. J'ai eu le plaisir de créer cette oeuvre avec l'excellent violoncelliste, Alain Meunier, le 22 septembre 1985, en présence du compositeur. Alain Prévost / Duos

Bach's Inventions is a collection of 15 Two-Part and 15 Three-Part pieces. Originally composed as pedagogical exercises for his students their contrapuntal composition still works brilliantly as anintroduction and practice in counterpoint. Bach wrote the Inventions as a way for his students to practise playing in two parts then after some progress in three parts;with an end goal of becoming more accomplished at composition. The two groups of pieces are arranged in order of ascending key with each covering eight major and seven minor keys.

The Two-part Inventions offer a unique challenge to the solo guitarist which is to master the never-ending array of left-hand finger combinations and positions while preserving clarity between the two voices. It goes without saying that the Two-part Inventions offer a wealth of technical and musical challenges. For the student who wishes to improve his or her sight-reading ability these transcriptions will serve admirably well; and for the serious musician who is always seeking out new repertoire these transcriptions will be well suited for performance.

Bach composed his 15 Two-Part Inventions or as he called them Sinfonias for Keyboard at the same time as their 15 Three-Part Counterparts. They are designed to as Bach himself says: 'To play cleanly in two voices...(and) deal correctly with three obbligato voices...but above all else to acquire a true cantabile style of playing and with it to get a good foretaste of the art of composition'.
