Christoph Wolff\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1721 a 20-year-old soprano employed at the princely court in Köthen married the court's Kapellmeister, set to become the greatest composer of the age. As his second wife she married into a young family with four children, and a busy household filled with music. The music book that Johann Sebastian Bach presented to his new wife Anna Magdalena in 1722, and replaced more lavishly in 1725, treats us to a tantalizing glimpse inside this unique family, allowing us to sit beside Bach as a composer, teacher, husband and father. Over the years, these notebooks became a place for the family to share instructional exercises, favourite pieces - by Bach and other composers - to play or sing, early composition efforts from the children, and first versions of some of Bach's more ambitious keyboard works.Drawn from Christoph Wolff's new and cutting-edge scholarly edition of the complete Anna Magdalena Notebooks, Edition Peters is proud to present a new volume of shorter and easier pieces from the notebooks, perfect for practical use by students of all ages and their teachers.Urtext edition by pre-eminent Bach scholar Christoph Wolff, Harvard Professor and former Director of the Leipzig Bach Archive Represents the very latest in Bach scholarship, reflecting up-to-the-minute research on texts, authorship and copyistsA selection of the most popular pieces from the two notebooks in a practical student edition Contains works for keyboard and vocal pieces, following the practice of musical education and performance in Bach's home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem No:\u003c\/b\u003e    98-EP11501\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e    Sheet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e    Edition Peters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage(s):\u003c\/b\u003e    English; German\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eYear Published:\u003c\/b\u003e    2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"ALFRED","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67732184924351,"sku":"ALF EP11501","price":15.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1335\/9063\/files\/98-EP11501.jpg?v=1792731459","url":"https:\/\/www.imaginethismusic.com\/products\/alf-98-ep11501","provider":"Imagine This Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
