Title: Bach - WTC fingered editions
Post by: jabbz on June 17, 2007, 08:33:30 PM: Hullo, any Editions of the Well Tempered Clavier that have been fingered? I think Busoni did one and Tovey, but anything would b most appreciated! Thanks.

The Busoni Edition is indeed well fingered, but is it not best for a pianist to work out his own?

I have been using my own fingerings, but I've been wanting to compare them, just to check them really.

Why do you want to check your own fingerings if they work ?

Post by: ganymed on June 18, 2007, 08:10:16 PM: but ive noticed , that in editions be it from henle or peters there are sometimes very clever fingering fitting the hands nicely . Its good to compare the fingers from many editions, to derive the best possible one.
