Description: “As one of the most famous contributors to classical music ever to have lived, Johann Sebastian Bach's (1685-1750) catalogue is extensive. Moreover, being an organist himself, his Organ works are significant and remain ever-popular to this day. When French organist, Marcel Dupré (1886-1971) compiled the series of Bach's Complete Organ Works, it was well-received, and to this day remains popular with all organists. The tenth volume includes a favoured selection of Bach's works, including Three Chorales, and Three Partitas and Canonic Variations. In addition, Dupré's annotations in Complete Organ Works comprise fingerings, rules on technique and instructions on ornamentation, amongst other aspects. This compilation of J. S. Bach's most loved compositions for the Organ cannot be missed by aspiring performers of the instrument.”

Originally by Antonio Vivaldi, first arranged by Johann Sebastian Bach. This engaging work of the Baroque era is reinterpreted here for the modern brass quintet by David Baldwin.
Description: The solo parts of this wonderful Double Concerto for two violins and orchestra survive in a faultless fair copy by Bach that was made around 1730. The slow movement is regarded as a melodic high point of the composer's output. With the two solo violins on an equal footing, the concerto amply deserves its position as one of Bach's most often-played and popular works.
Description: For the editor of an Urtext edition, Bach's A minor violin concerto BMV 1041 presents few problems; cleanly-written original parts exist from Bach's Kothen (or early Leipzig) period. But beyond the guarantee of a reliable musical text, the Henle edition scores points in terms of text layout; thanks to a foldout solo part, turning pages is made comfortable, something that was previously a challenge because of the literally non-stop, continuous sixteenth notes in the opening movement. Other publishers have since copied this idea. Only the piano reduction from Henle – in all three of Bach's violin concertos – can be effortlessly performed off the page, even by the lay musician.
Description: Bach's E Major Violin Concerto has survived solely in the form of a copy, but in view of its significant compositional substance, and of Bach's arrangement (which has come down to us as an autograph) for harpsichord and orchestra, the work's authenticity is beyond question. The highly expressive violin melody in the second movement speaks for itself: the harpsichord version cannot provide a real replacement for it.
Description: This edition of the Violin Concerto in A minor is tailored to today's common style of violin playing as well as historically informed performance practice.
In the appendix of the solo part, the version of the Bach Complete Edition is also printed allowing the violinist to create their own interpretation.
Description: One of the all-time favorites in string pedogogy literature, here is the “Bach Double” superbly arranged for string ensemble, retaining the original violin parts and now supported by well-scored ensemble parts (with optional keyboard). Larry Moore's arrangement is a welcome edition for today's string ensembles.
