Booklet of Music for Anna Magdalena Bach

Bach gifted his wife Anna Magdalena two handwritten music notebooks. The second one is particularly valuable, featuring a parchment-covered binding with gilded edges. In this little book from 1725, he recorded numerous piano pieces in various styles - both his own works and those of other composers. The Henle Urtext edition, which is among the best-selling titles in our catalog every year, reproduces the entire content of this manuscript note-for-note and beautifully engraved by hand, except for the movements from the 'French Suites' and 'Partitas' included in the notebook, which can be found elsewhere in the Henle catalog.
