Franklin Taylor's Preface to the edition is as
follows
"Comparison of the many existing editions of Bach's
works reveals a very considerable amount of divergence,
both as to the notation, and especially in regard to
the numerous ornaments. In these circumstances the only
possible course is to endeavour to choose those forms
which appear to be most in agreement with the
Composer's usual methods, and which carry some measure
of authority. For the result the Editor must be
responsible.
"As regards the matter of performance, the aims of this
edition are, in the first place, accuracy of notes, and
secondly, increase facility of reading, and
consequently of execution, achieved by means of a
carefully considered scheme of fingering, in which,
with very rare exceptions, all notes belonging to the
right hand are written on the upper stave, those for
the left hand being confined to the lower one.
"The original signs for the ornaments have been
retained, and no attempt is made to translate them into
modern forms. Reference to the Table of Ornaments at
the beginning of the book will show the manner of their
proper execution in each case."
