Handel wrote the famous Dixit Dominus with the text of Psalm 109 during his time in Italy in c. 1707. Although he was only 22 years old the work already demonstrates his wide spectrum of compositional abilities which are later fully realized in his operas and oratorios. Central to this work are the six choral movements which – with their polyphonic structure – are closely related to German choral music of the 17th century. The first Urtext edition BA 4002 based on the Halle Handel Edition was published in 1960. At that time no critical commentary was published so that in cases of doubt the basis on which editorialdecisions were made was not officially recorded. A new complete edition volume (BA 10704/01) due to be published in 2013 will include a detailed foreword providing information on the genesis and the first performance of this work as well as information on the psalm on which this work is based and on performance practice. In addition several facsimiles pages will be included giving a view into the source material. The critical commentary will provide a detailed insight into all the available sources and how they have been passed down. This newly revised Urtext performing edition offers a thorough revision of this frequently-performed work and meets all the requisites of a scholarly-critical edition. Former readings in the old edition regarding a small number of pitches but mostly basso continuo figures and the underlying text have now been able to be amended on the basis of the new findings. In the new edition the work appears in nine movements – no longer eight – which reflects the composer's intentions. The new performance material is not compatible with the old one.

BWV 10- Now My Soul Exalts The Lord BWV 10: Cantata for the Feast of Visitation B. V. M. With his cantata Meine Seel Erhebt Den Herren which Bach composed for the Visitation of Mary (2 July) he created a Magnificat setting of a different kind: The German text source is a combination of biblical text and a free interpretation the basis being the Marian hymn of praise from the Gospel according to Luke. The 9th psalm tone acts as the chorale melody and becomes a recurring musical theme. With a small scoring of one trumpet (which if need be can be omitted) two oboes strings and basso continuo along with four soloists and choir Bach succeeds in writing a festive music of 20-25 minutes. This performing edition is based on the Urtext of the New Bach Edition.

Pikes PeakAu nord-ouest de Colorado Springs se dresse Pikes Peak qui culmine à 4300 mètres.

für Oboe Violine Tasteninstrument Cello ad lib.- Here is a publication that springs from the spirit of Baroque transcription practice at its best. In this case it also goes hand in hand with a reconstruction made with scholarly precision. As to the choice of the key editor Klaus Hofmann decided against C minor which the previous generation had preferred and turned instead to D minor that Max Schneider had chosen back in 1921. The fruit of Siegfried Petrenzs labor is an inspired transparent 'Clavier' reduction (EB 8662) that is amazingly faithful to Baroque practice. Musicians will undoubtedly welcome this arrangement which boldly transgresses the conventions of Piano scores and presents a 'new' work the 'TrioSonata' in D minor BWV 1060.

Cantata for Easter Tuesday- Ein Herz dass seinen Jesum lebend weiss BWV 134 Cantata for Easter Tuesday (third version). Cantata BWV 134 belongs to those works in which we can follow particularly clearly Bach's custom of continually altering and improving his works from performance to performance. Although this cantata in the course of its history became a valuable even a particularly festal church cantata it does not disown its secular origin. The complete absence of blblical words and chorale is striking. Urtext of the New Bach Edition Fullscore & performance material (BA10134) vocal score (BA10134-90) available for sale
