The „Concerto after Italian Taste“ in F major for two-manual harpsichord reminds us in its conception of Bach’s Weimar arrangements of solo concertos for a keyboard instrument. Here he juxtaposed the Italian Concerto in a contrasting manner with the “Overture in French Style” in B minor which represents an arrangement of a Suite in C minor composed earlier. This Urtext edition offers the musical text of the New Bach Edition (NBE).
