Bach Suites
edition
Which edition has the fewest markings? I have the Bahrenreiter but
I don't want to play from that (a bit confusing with multiple
variations of measures) and don't have it with me. I do have the 3rd
Markevitch edition and am starting to get annoyed by some of the
wacko bowings.
TIA
Laura

Re: Bach Suites

The Vandersall Edition is entirely blank. Make your own
edition.
If that is too empty for you you might like to start
with the reprint of the Bach-Gesellschaft Edition published by
Dover. If I remember correctly it fairly closely represents the
bowings in JS Bach's wife's manuscript.

There's also the most AMAZING new Baerenreiter Urtext, which not
only has a revised addition of the original, but also 5 sources in
facimilie and an account by the editiors. If you want to do away
with anything wacko, this is about as close as you can get to
perfect.

Re: Bach Suites

I was thinking about this problem last week and had an idea that
just needs some computer genius to carry it out (and probably a lot
of copyright permissions.) Anyway, how about a computer program
where you get the blank scores, and then you just click on whose
editing you want, and then revise that anyway you want, and print it
out? Just dreaming, I know.. this isn't very realistic given all the
millions of variations and the permissions problem.

Henle
There is a new Henle Edition. It contains two parts: one with
markings and fingerings by Reiner Ginzel, and one part without any
comments. Have fun! Anna

Verlag
Urtext
I have both the Violin Solo Sonatas/Partitas and the Cello Suites
in the Henle Verlag Edition. The fact that it has the other part
with fingering/bowing suggestions makes it a lot easier to formulate
your own ideas
(the only problem with the violin edition is
that in the Chaconne, the broken chords are not written out, which
makes it a little bit tricky!)
Having the blank canvas is
rather intimidating somehow, so the suggestions (combined with those
of your teacher) are helpful. Also, I don't think that the Henle
costs as much(?)

Re: Bach Suites

The recent Mischa Maisky CDs of the bach suites contains the score
edited by himself on the third disc where you can watch the notes
move as Maisky plays or listen to a midi file. It also alows you to
print his edition or edit your own. I didn't enjoy the CD but liked
the novel idea.

Re: Bach Suites

I had the exact same feeling. I wasn't particularly moved by what
little of the CD I did here. I really bought it for the MIDI files,
printable score, etc. HOWEVER, although you can ADD whatever you
want to the bow markings, etc., you CANNOT DELETE anything. So
you're left with a bunch of err ah, crap, that you have to "cross
out" but now with nice 14pt font red X's instead of your ol' number
2.
I'm interested to here that there is a blank edition.
Maybe I'll buy that one and make it my last one! (Yeah, right.)

Re: Bach Suites

Is there a type set version (i.e. not hand written) of the MM*
edition?
*Not like I'm being slick in just using initials, I
just don't want butcher the poor woman's name.
