Fourth Part of the Clavier Übung. Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Edited by Christoph Wolff. This edition: urtext edition. Stapled. Barenreiter Urtext. With fingering. Performance score. BWV 988. Baerenreiter Verlag #BA10848. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.BA10848).
ISBN 9790006543175. 12.2 x 9.57 inches. Language: German/English. Preface: Christoph Wolff / Ragna Schirmer.
Bach’s “Goldberg Variations” have remained a challenge for every harpsichord player and pianist to the present day. One special problem with performances on a modern piano is that Bach wrote this work for a two-manual harpsichord. Ragna Schirmer’s fingering offers the most convenient solutions for the many crossings of the hands necessary on the piano. She also took the engraving of the original print of 1741 as an important guide for dividing the parts between the hands.
Ragna Schirmer has already provided fingering for the Bärenreiter edition of Bach’s “Six Partitas: First Part of the Clavier Übung” (BA 5247).
