The Partita was virtually unknown until 1917 when the manuscript (call number: Mus. Ms. Bach P 968) was acquired by the then Royal Library in Berlin from the heirs of the former Thomaskantor and avid Bach collector Wilhelm Rust (1822-1892). For this reason, the Partita for Flute, BWV 1013 was not included in the pioneering Gesamtausgabe der Bachgesellschaft finished in 1900. In addition, it seems possible that Wilhelm Rust intentionally withheld the piece from publication despite the fact that he had generously supported the Bachgesellschaft edition in its early stages. Today the Partita is well known, though it is worth remembering that this piece is one of the latest additions to the canon of Bach's works.

    Clear typeset / font and great flute music. Interesting historical context and a few brief interpretation considerations referencing original manuscript.

    I heard this on a CD I have over and over, and each time I was just amazed by it. I finally got around to searching for it online. I love it even more now that I can play it! My friends were blown away:)

  • March 12, 2008 Notes daring you to make music of them!

    This publication is an Urtext edition, meaning that the notes etc. are as close to the original manuscript as possible. In this case, there are no editing marks or hints for playing the 4 movements. Without a teacher/coach, you may make a novel interpretation that is not received as...

    an 'authentic' baroque Bach sound. Be prepared to reach into your inner spirit once the intervals and breath support are mastered. The edition - as are all Baerenreiter - is very high quality, easy to read even at a distance. Try it - it will be addictive!

    Jose has a good point. Jazz or Sacred? One should practice the Allemande with the metronome on, and off the quaver beat. Bach reveals himself to us. A composition which transcends the the performer. Play it how you like. Whether you feel like 'Dinah Moe Humm' or the 'Dali Llama...

    ', Bach shows you that neither is relevant.
