Johann Sebastian Bach composed not only for the nobility and the church, but also for bourgeois musical culture. Among these works are the harpsichord concertos, “music for a Leipzig ‘coffee house”. They are notated in a 1738 manuscript that is a unique and probably the most important document for the instrumental repertoire of the Leipzig “Collegium Musicum”. The concerto movements are arranged in such a way that the harpsichord is given a solo part that exploits the instrument’s “clavieristic” possibilities to the full. These works thus fix a decisive moment in the early history of the piano concerto genre which received significant impulses from Bach and his circle of students.

Kassel, 2022. 20 x 32 cm, xxx, 90 pp. Deluxe 4-color facsimile of the autograph score based on newly commissioned photographs. The preludes and fugues of The Well-Tempered Clavier embrace an entire cosmos of compositional devices and musical characters—the ne plus ultra of ‘unity through diversity’. Here Bach not only presented the sum total of keyboard artistry in his day but foresaw its future evolution. His treatment of the keys marked a turning point in music history. The autograph score, originally a fair copy, contains later revisions and alterations reflecting the composer at work. Bach authority Christoph Wolff provides a commentary to the work’s genesis and the characteristics of Bach’s handwriting. Martina Rebmann (Staatsbibliothek Berlin) describes the subsequent history of the autograph. Afterword in Eng-Ger. Limited bibliophile edition, binding with leather spine, boards in decorative paper and pasted title etikette. A note on the MS and its facsimiles: Previous facsimile editions (1962-1989) exhibit on some pages a "screen" effect, the result of a silk chiffon overlay that curators applied to Bach's MS to prevent crumbling of the paper. Curators discovered that the chiffon was actually damaging the paper more, so in the early 80s the original MS was withdrawn from public view. To finally solve the problem of deterioration—much of it due to the corrosive quality of the ink—curators turned to a method called "paper splitting", where front and reverse side of each leaf is split, and an alkali-buffered paper laid in between; during the process imperfections in the leaves are repaired with the finest cellulose fibers. The leaf is also treated with a chemical to stop the process of corrosion; in the end the damaging silk chiffon could be completely removed. This new facsimile edition presents the MS—for the first time—in its post-restoration state, without silk chiffon, significantly improving the vividness of Bach's handwriting, a true joy for Bach lovers.

Composed 1837 and dedicated to his pupil Lady de Fürstenstein, the 2nd scherzo (like the other three) doesn’t follow the stereotype of the genre, leading Ferdynand Hoesick to quip that the only jestful element of the composer’s scherzos was the title, while the content was sad.

The cycle presents both the history and geography of the Czech lands and embodies a sense of great national pride.

There is no better reason to present a work of Richard Strauss than through the publication in facsimile of a rare unpublished work: Twelve variations for Piano in D major, composed at the age of fourteen. This manuscript is one of 8 Strauss autographs kept at the Bibliothèque National de France, acquired in 1979 after the dispersal of the rich collection of André Meyer (1884-1974). It’s a marvel to compare this autograph from 1878 with one of the composer’s last—”Im Abendroth” from 1948, a seventy-year span, and see that little has changed in the master’s handwriting, deliberate and joyful.

Leuven Library of Music in Facsimile, 6. Antwerpen, 2022. 53.5 x 51 cm,18 x 25 cm, 2 vols, 52; 583 pp. Facsimile and study. Margaret of Austria’s basse danse manuscript, written in gold and silver ink on black parchment, is an exquisite relic of the artistic culture of the Habsburg-Burgundian court around 1500. This study examines the manuscript’s place within the culture of court dance, its place within Margaret’s library, its relationship to a contemporary printed source, the choreography and the music of the dances that it contains, and the challenges facing conservators given the book’s fragile condition.

[Brussels, Royal Libray, VI 18.613 C] A Canon for Mary of Hungary Facsimile. Facsimile and Study Edited by Eric Jas. _☟

Leuven Library of Music in Facsimile, 5. Antwerpen, 2021. 53.5 x 51 cm, 2 vols, 9; 128 pp. Facsimile and study. In 1548, the chapelmaster of the Brussels Burgundian court, Benedictus Appenzeller composed a four-voice canon that he dedicated to his patron, Mary of Hungary, sister of Emperor Charles V and governess of the Netherlands. This musical setting of the prayer of supplication Sancta Maria succurre miseris (‘Holy Mary, hasten to the aid of the unfortunate’) was printed by Philipp Ulhart in the same year in Augsburg, where an Imperial Diet (1547-48) had taken place shortly before in the governess’s presence. Apart from the customary print on paper, an exclusive and unique print on a linen tablecloth was made for the dedicatee. $276 (more info... ) [item no. 9727]

Fragments of English Polyphonic Music c.1390-1475. A Facsimile Edition Edited by Margaret Bent & Andrew Wathey. _☟

Early English Church Music, 62. London, 2022. 30 x 43 cm. 78, 306 pp. This long-awaited volume contains fragments of English polyphonic music from the 1390s to the 1470s. Like the previous facsimile volume (EECM57) it has a large page format maximizing the number of manuscripts that can be reproduced at full size; color reproduction conveys the syntax of late-medieval notation, particularly the use of red notation; page-turns follow the recto-verso arrangement of the original MSS far as possible; extensive image editing restores a degree of legibility to much-degraded MSS. The MSS reproduced here include the famous Coventry Caput Mass, vestiges of a royal choirbook virtually reassembled by Bent and a systematic investigation by Wathey of the Beverley fragments. Although fragmentary, these 15th-century sources, containing music by Dunstable, Power, Plummer and their contemporaries, attest to the vitality of the English polyphonic tradition as it neared its pre-Reformation zenith.

Irseer-Orgeltabulatur. [Passau State Library]. _☟

Faksimile-Edition Rara, 95. Stuttgart, 2021. 24 x 36 cm, 226 pp. Color facsimile of a rare and unique organ tablature MS from 1590 containing 83 pieces. According to an inscription in the book it was created for Abbot Carolus Andreae, a Benedictine monk active at the Kloster of Irsee, Ostallgäu, Bavaria (Andreae is credited with initiating the installation of a new organ by the Irsee organ builder Daniel Hayl in 1612). The MS comprises an anthology organ adaptations of vocal music from the last decades of the 16th c., including works by Hans Leo Hassler, Orlando di Lasso, Johannes Eccard, Joachim a Burck, Michael Tonsor, Jakob Regnart, Heinricus de la Court, Philippe le Duc, Sebastian Hasenknopf, and Alexander Utendal. The aim of the intabulations (a notation very similar to German lute tablature) is not clear—they may have been written for study, or rehearsal purposes, or most likely, for possible insertion in a liturgical setting. The MS ends with one piece in “modern” staff notation. Hardbound in decorative paper boards. $125 (more info... ) [item no. 9662]
