Description:
Practice-oriented Urtext edition based on the current state of Bach research
With compact critical report
Interpretation aids for articulation by marking analogous passages in the score
Each era hears and interprets Bach anew, and each era also reads the sources anew and with different eyes. 40 years after the publication of the St. Matthew Passion in the New Bach Edition, Klaus Hofmann, the long-standing director of the Johann Sebastian Bach Institute in Göttingen and editor of the New Bach Edition, has produced a new edition. Hofmann places source philology entirely at the service of musical practice and the detailed determination of Bach's intentions. It is no secret among connoisseurs that Bach's original score and the original performance parts, comprising almost 500 pages of music, are full of ambiguities and contradictions, particularly with regard to articulation, which constantly challenge new interpretations. Hofmann discusses these and other problems in the Critical Report in concise form and often arrives at new solutions. Comprehensive additions of analogies offer valuable assistance for interpretation. The part material also meets all practical requirements. For example, the text beginnings of each movement are also entered in the instrumental parts (including tacet notes). In short - a practice-oriented Urtext edition based on the current state of Bach research.
Thanks to the arrangement for orchestra (arr. D. Sourisse Carus 31.244/50), it is also possible to perform the work on a smaller scale.
