Comparing Bach Invention 1 - Urtext edition and autograph score

[crookster]

Hello!

I was just wondering the reason why the urtext is about a 3rd lower than writen from the autograph version, when urtext is supposed to reflect the autograph as much as possible? - using the scores on this site. Is it due to different temperaments?

Cheers

It's in the soprano clef.

Errrr I know I'm wrong but shouldn't this thread be in another board?
