MUSIC - OPTIONS
Download free of charge, and print - or display on a tablet!
Purchase your own: Breitkopf edition is preferred. You can also order the Breitkopf edition from Presto Music and other publishers. Allow good time - at least two weeks!
If Chris Brown produces his own edition of a work, it will be available for sale at the weekend.
DOWNLOADING
Links to vocal scores for the next DBCC weekend are placed on the home page.
Free vocal scores for nearly all the cantatas can be downloaded:
Tip: Avoid the BGA scores. They are an important historical source - but very hard to read with unusual clefs!
If you have a problem with downloading or printing, contact us for help.
RECORDINGS
High quality historically informed performances are on YouTube, with interpretations by Herreweghe, J.E. Gardiner, Koopman, J.S. Bach Foundation and others. Simply search for the BWV number, e.g. "BWV 21"
