An instructive foreword in English and facsimiles complete the picture.

Bach for Brass 7  wishes to distinguish itself in three areas. First it is the first one to be based principally on the primary sources: first and foremost the original parts from which Bach’s musicians played, but also Bach’s autograph scores. Second it appears in a short score where the page turns allow, otherwise as a double part. Third and most importantly: most of the works of this collection appear twice, in choir pitch and chamber pitch. Performances are thus made possible in various pitches, on both original and modern instruments.
