for Flute and Harpsichord obbligato (Piano)-The B Minor Suite has a special place among the four extant Orchestral suites by Johann Sebastian Bach (BWV 1066-1069) for two reasons: it is the only suite that calls for only one wind instrument and the only one with extensive solo passages for one instrument. Since moreover it is essentially Bach's only composition for solo Flute with Orchestra it enjoys great favour among flutists.A proper string ensemble is not always at one's disposal. Therefore an arrangement {or Flute and Obbligato Harpsichord has been prepared similar to one Bach himself might have written. The aim here has been to do nothing thatBach himself would not have done yet to refrain from doing everything of which he was capable.

Orchester-Suite-J.S. Bach?s Four Orchestral Suites belong to that select group of works one could truly call classical hits! They stem from Bach?s extremely productive time in Cöthen which ended in 1721.Unfortunately the only sources that have come down to us are copyist parts from Leipzig. These originally formed the basis for the critical complete edition volume which was published in 1967 as part of the ?New Bach Edition?.At that time Bärenreiter also issued separate scores and parts which however were prepared with additional articulation and performance suggestions. Bärenreiter?s new edition of Bach?s great four suitesnow presents the Urtext as found in the ?New Bach Edition? i.e. without emendations and performance suggestions. The orchestral parts have been re-engraved and the material includes an alternative version of the Overture and Air to the D major suite BWV 1068 including a ?Violino concertato? part.- Urtext editions of these important works.- Newly engraved parts and fully realized continuo.- For the first time an alternative version of the Overture and Air to the D major suite BWV 1068 with ? Violino concertato ? is included.- Full scores study scores and performance material available for sale.
