Product Description

Cello Suite No 1 in G major with an accompaniment for a second cello including bowings and fingerings after comparing the 4 surviving manuscripts and early prints in detail.
Special attention is given to the 2 early scripts, which copied from Bach's original, the difficult to read copy by Kellner and Anna Magdalena's copy.
I added a continue part, developed by accompanying students for the pure joy of playing together.
The accompaniment is dedicated to Robert Schumann, who added for the same reason an accompaniment to Cello Suite No 1, but unfortunately only some sketches have survived. The more elaborate parts to the whole Suite have unfortunately been lost.
I thank Schumann for his idea to dare the step, just to add an accompaniment for the pure joy of playing these wonderful movements with friends together.
