{"product_id":"henle-verlag-bach-french-suites-bwv-812-817-piano-361407","title":"Bach - French Suites BWV 812-817 - Piano","description":"\u003ch3\u003eSummary of This Score\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithin Johann Sebastian Bach's great keyboard literature, the \u003cstrong\u003eFrench Suites\u003c\/strong\u003e hold a special place: popular from their inception, they remain an essential passage for any pianist drawn to Baroque aesthetics, stylized dance, and multi-voiced polyphony. This revised \u003cstrong\u003eHenle Urtext\u003c\/strong\u003e edition highlights the richness of these suites, suitable both for daily practice and concert performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe main editorial challenge of these works lies in the abundance of sources: a considerable number of copies from Bach's circle and students transmit numerous \u003cstrong\u003evariants\u003c\/strong\u003e, often plausibly authentic. Rather than oversimplify, this publication embraces the complexity and makes it readable: minor differences are recorded in \u003cstrong\u003efootnotes\u003c\/strong\u003e, allowing quick comparison of options without cluttering the main score.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen divergences become more substantial, the edition goes further by offering the affected movements in \u003cstrong\u003etwo versions\u003c\/strong\u003e, a rare asset for understanding the transmission tradition and refining interpretative choices (ornamentation, phrasing, voice leading, articulation). An \u003cstrong\u003eappendix\u003c\/strong\u003e complements the whole with alternative or additional pieces, ideal for enriching a program or exploring complementary study paths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to this fully revised Urtext edition featuring \u003cstrong\u003enew fingerings\u003c\/strong\u003e, pianists, modern harpsichordists, and Bach enthusiasts have a premium resource to rediscover the world of the French Suites: textual precision, reading comfort, and musicological depth serving the performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMusical Genre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eClassical\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSheet music\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eJohann Sebastian Bach\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eclassical score (Baroque suites)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eHenle Urtext (revised edition)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e107\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ekeyboard (piano)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Henle Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54359483318547,"sku":"361407","price":18.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/6c26a37466b8c2ce3e0c26929aa495e4e7e91590_MDS_821433.jpg?v=1789422627","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/henle-verlag-bach-j-s-suites-francaises-bwv-812-817-361407","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
