J S Bach's Harpsichord works in Bischoff's edition

[John Ruggero]

Hans Bischoff's edition of all of J. S. harpsichord works is one of the earliest Urtext editions and still one of the best available. It would be a very worthy addition to IMSLP in two forms: the original German edition and the first version published by Kalmus with English translation of the extensive footnotes. The later Kalmus and Alfred versions which are the ones currently for sale are to be avoided because the re-engraving badly mangled the text.
