A large number of works have come down to us under the name of Johann Sebastian Bach, the authenticity of which has been questioned on various occasions. This edition now brings together all those pieces for which Bach's authorship can either be regarded as certain or at least seriously considered after thorough examination by the contributors to the "New Bach Edition". The edition brings together compositions of very different kinds: in addition to numerous preludes and fugues, there are fantasies, toccatas, dance and concerto movements. Two settings based on the violin solo sonatas BWV 1003 and 1005 are particularly noteworthy, as they demonstrate in a particularly impressive way what also applies to all the other pieces in this volume: even if Bach's authorship is doubtful, there is no doubt that we are dealing with fascinating music here.

The volume reproduces the musical text of the volume published in 2006 in the "New Bach Edition" (Series V, Volume 12 BA 5296).
