Brandenburgische Konzerte Concerto IV G-dur [Brandenburg Concerto 4 in G Major]

Description

Ulrich Haverkampf presents this reduction of the Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 in G Major, BWV 1049, for two flutes (or recorders), violin, and piano.

The aim of this combined scholarly and practical edition of the Brandenburg Concerto is to offer a state of the art performance material of this standard works of Baroque music literature, which satisfies the practical needs of performing artists. This new edition was based on surviving autographic source material – some of which has been taken into account for the first time – and the ‘Neue Bach-Ausgabe’ (NBA). Moreover, it also makes use of relevant 18th-century theoretical writings for editorial additions and observations on performance practice.

– from the joint preface to the ‘Six Brandenburg Concertos’ by the Bach scholars Werner Felix, Winfried Hoffmann and Armin Schneiderheinze)
