Transcription for Viola solo by Simon Rowland-Jones

Edited by Rowland-Jones and David Ledbetter

The aim of this edition is to make Bach’s landmark works for solo violin accessible to viola players by presenting a musical text that remains close to the original but also has a distinctly practical focus. Additionally, it provides interpretative guidance on Baroque performance practices and how they can be applied to the viola. In this transcription, all pieces have been transposed down by a fifth, but no further changes were made.

Excellent edition.
I already own Simon Rowland-Jones's edition of the Bach cello suites for viola and it is one of my favorite editions. It is very faithful to the available manuscripts and contains almost no added bowings or fingerings. So I had high expectations for this edition and was not disappointed. It is very responsibly done and also contains a very useful, scholarly, and practical preface.
