ISBN 9790080131213. UPC: 073999750416. Bach (23 x 30,2 cm) inches. Hungarian, English, German. Ottavio Bariola; Szilvia Katalin Fittler.

Ottavio Bariola was a famous Milanese organist in the late 16th century. Only a relatively small number of his works is known to survive, among them a collection of ricercares and canzonas. The present edition offers a selection of ten pieces of the latter collection. In agreement with their genre the compositions are strictly polyphonic in structure. In this edition the works are included in a four-part setting with consistent part-writing. Due to their volume and grade of difficulty the pieces are not meant for concert hall performance in the first place but for enriching the repertoire of church organists and lovers of early music.

Johannes Umbreit (piano reduction); Michael Schneidt (fingering) Two copies needed for performance It is almost impossible to tell from listening to them that Bach's extremely popular concerti for harpsichord were probably his own transcriptions of solo concerti which had originally been composed for violin or a woodwind instrument. The outer movements of the second concerto, in E major, probably written around 1738, sparkle with joy, while the expressive melodic lines of the middle movement, the Siciliano in C-sharp minor, transport the listener to the realm of his Passion music. G. Henle Publishers presents this repertoire standard in an Urtext edition with an extensive commentary. The study edition (HN 7381) features the complete orchestral score; the piano reduction (HN 1381) contains the solo part as well as a very playable piano reduction of the score prepared by Johannes Umbreit for practical use.
