| Documenta Musicologica, II/11. Kassel, 4/ 1999. Oblong, 20 x 17 cm, xxviii, 184 pp. 2-color collotype reproduction of the autograph manuscript. The most important and comprehensive chorale collection in the organ repertory. Codicologically the manuscript—a torso—tells us a lot about the developmental process of the collection and suggests that Bach had been compiling the Orgelbüchlein over several years. Although an anthology of 164 chorale arrangements was intended, only about one third that amount was actually copied. Nearly all of these originate from the Weimar period (1708-1717). Introduction in German, with index. Hardbound. $83 (view
