This is a great edition of Bach's inventions, at the begining I thought that I had wasted my money because you can find these sheets everywhere in the web but when I saw the quality of the printing I got totally surprised, the information at the begining of the book is incredible and the CD has excellent interpretations of the Bach's pieces, Buy it, you will be totally happy with it.
The CD provides an example of how the work sounds on a modern instrument. Of use for all early players, of any age, who are attempting to learn keyboard technique that is presumably similar to what was used in the Baroque period.
I bought this edition through some time ago. I had no problems with the paper quality or binding . The editing is discretely identified by the use of gray ink. The notes are outstanding, and the fingering s work very well for me.
I am using the book now, and am throughly enjoying it and it is very good. Very good.Anne Stickles
The Piano teacher recommended this to build technique so that one doesn't stumble later once you become a more advanced student.
I particularly like the explanatory notes and background information. Writing out the notation of each ornament was just what I needed. Very clear.
