Extra Information see below
  • Hermann J. Busch, in the preface of his edition of Händel 6 Voluntaries (Schott, 1986), writes that these «"Six Little Fugues" were published at the beginning of the 19th century by Diabelli in Vienna, and from there found their way into Friedrich Chrysander's complete Handel Edition (vol. 48) and in many a practical edition of Handel's keyboard music.»
  • Since authenticity of these fughettas is doubtful, there is no HWV number known, except for the last Fughetta HWV 611.
