In 1725, J.S. Bach gave his second wife, Anna Magdalena, a "Notenbchlein"a collection of solo keyboard pieces and arias. Most of the keyboard pieces were composed by friends, colleagues, and his son, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. The easier keyboard works were probably used to instruct their children, while the arias would have been performed by Anna Magdalena, who was a singer. For this edition, Edwin McLean has chosen and expertly edited the most popular and easier keyboard pieces. Originally, th...

Like the two-part inventions, Bach's three-part inventions (also known as Sinfonias) were composed as instructional material for his son, Wilhelm Friedemann. In researching the sinfonias, Willard A. Palmer discovered that previous editors had misinterpreted an important note in Sinfonia No. 11. Such careful research is a hallmark of Palmer's Bach editions. - the publisher (sample page)

Baroque (1723). For solo harpsichord, cembalo, or piano. Bach's two-part Inventions and three-part Sinfonias (BWV 787-801) have come down to us in an autograph fair copy dated 1723. The Inventions in particular are of merely moderate difficulty and occupy an important place in piano teaching to this day. In terms of their overall organization, the 15 pieces can be seen as leading on to the Wohltemperiertes Klavier. In keeping with normal practice, they were initially distributed in the form of ha...
Bach/Busoni - a pairing that makes pianists' hearts beat faster. This is because Busoni succeeded in making piano transcriptions of works that Bach had originally tailor-made for another instrument in such a way that one can still sense the original sound world while the grand piano is able to show off its full potential. Together with the C-major Toccata, BWV 564, his transcription of the Organ Toccata in D minor, BWV 565 (now, after some interim uncertainty, once more considered a work by Bach...
