III 183 indicating it was now considered a spurious work. Similarly, BWV 1083243a meant BWV 1083, inserted after BWV 243a (3rd chapter).Īlso authenticity discriminations, based on new research, could lead to such repositionings within the catalogue, e.g. Rather than renumbering a composition, an arrow indicated where the composition was inserted: BWV 11249b meaning BWV 11, inserted after BWV 249b (4th chapter). III (spurious works) in BWV 2a, after they were attributed to Christian Petzold.Ī strict numerical collation was abandoned to insert additions, or when for another reason compositions were regrouped.įor example, BWV 11, formerly listed as a Cantata, was moved to the fourth chapter of the main catalogue as an Oratorio. In contrast to other catalogues such as the Kchel catalogue for Mozart s compositions there is no attempt at chronological organization in the BWV numbering, for instance BWV 992 is an early composition by Bach.Įxceptionally BWV numbers are also indicated as Schmieder (S) numbers (e.g. Wolfgang Schmieder, the editor of that catalogue, grouped the compositions by genre, largely following BG for the collation (e.g.īG cantata number BWV number of the cantata): 5. Occasionally however the NBG published newly discovered works, or variants not published in the BGA.įor instance the 1740s version of O Jesu Christ, meins Lebens Licht was published in NBG XVII 1 in 1916 (the 1730s version of the same piece, with a different orchestration, had been published in BG 24, pp. The BG was succeeded by the Neue Bachgesellschaft (NBG), with a new set of goals (Bach yearbook, Bach festivals, and a Bach museum). So, for example, the Prelude and Fugue in E-flat major can be indicated as C. In the first half of the 19th century more works were published, so the next biographies (Schauer and Hilgenfeldt in 1850) had more elaborate appendices listing printed works, referring to these works by publisher, and the number or page number given to the works in these publications. The first separately published biography of the composer, by Johann Nikolaus Forkel, follows the same approach: its ninth chapter first lists printed works (adding four-part chorales which had been published in the second half of the 18th century ), followed by a rough overview of the unpublished ones. Nearly all of them are listed in the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (BWV), which is the best known and most widely used catalogue of Bachs compositions. His instrumental music includes concertos, suites, sonatas, fugues, and other works for organ, harpsichord, lute, violin, viola da gamba, cello, flute, chamber ensemble and orchestra.
