Van Nuys, CA: Alfred Publishing Company, 1988. Paperback quarto, very good condition, lay-flat binding, minor edgewear corners, crease top corner front cover. 143 pp. Text and sheet music. This book consists of the six harpsichord suites known as the "French Suites" composed by J. S. Bach (1685 - 1750) between 1722 and 1725 in the German city of Cothen (Kothen, Saxony), where he spent six productive and happy years as Capellmeister in the court of Prince Leopold, producing some of his best known works. The only copies of the French suites in Bach's own hand surviving today were found in a music notebook, possibly a gift to his wife Anna Magdalena on her birthday in 1722, shortly after their marriage. The present edition has been newly researched. The autograph and all the manuscripts were carefully studied by the editor.
