URTEXT EDITION 

This is an urtext/critical/scholarly/scientific edition (or a simple re-engraving). Any commentary or critical apparatus, if protected by copyright, should not be included in the scan(s) available here. This edition was published by Bärenreiter in Germany over 25 years ago and is in the public domain in its country of origin.

In Canada, new editions/re-engravings of public domain works (when not including new original material) should be in the public domain due to failing to meet the threshold of originality. In most European Union countries, these editions (except new original material) are generally protected for no more than 25 years from publication (30 years in Poland). In the United States, copyright can only apply to new creative work, and the re-engraving of a public domain piece (not including new additions of creative material) should not qualify for a new copyright, despite copyright claims (which properly would only apply to new material).

You may need to check the publication date and details of the work's first publication in order to determine the work's copyright status, especially for the United States.

Misc. Notes This is not a scientific critical edition, it's just an engraving made for study purpose. The main sources used are the parts manuscript available on IMSLP, conserevd in Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin (Mus. ms. 30199, Faszikel 14). There are major incoherences between dynamics in parts, so that a dynamic indication doesn't appear at the same time in all parts, or the written dynamics are different. I tried to make them homogeneous and coherent, but other sources would be necessary to know Bach's real intents. The same can be said about slurs, although this aspect has fewer (and less serious) issues. A more pondered edition is currently printed by Carus Verlag.
