Concerto in G Major after BWV 1055 (Score & Set)-BSN/ORCH

Concerto in G Major after BWV 1055
for bassoon and strings
by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)- German Baroque composer This edition is edited by Daryl Duran, and comes with:
Bach's Concerto BWV 1055, like all of the composer's harpsichord concerti, is based on previously composed material. While the source material for BWV 1055 has been lost, there is general agreement that this music was originally written as a concerto for oboe d'amore during the years Bach was Kapellmeister at Cothen (1717-1723). 
Oboists have been performing various reconstructions of this concerto in A Major (also the key of the harpsichord version). With the oboe d'amore pitched in A, a solo part in C is ideal for the soloist. This version places the concerto in G Major, a friendlier key for the bassoon, while retaining the brighter string sound of sharp keys. 
For this edition, both the harpsichord and oboe d'amore versions on the concerto were consulted. The performer is encouraged to do the same when preparing the piece. The parts have purposely been left without articulation and with only a few ornaments so the performers can make their own decisions about these expressive elements.
