Johann Sebastian Bachs Instrumentarium: Originalquellen - Besetzung - Verwendung - Prinz, Ulrich (2005)
Using original scores and parts, contemporary instruments and engravings as well as documents of Bach's performances and references to instrument makers, this volume deals comprehensively with the question of Bach's instrumentation. Among other things, the relationship between sound and fingering, tuning problems, the required range and tone supply are discussed. Conclusions are drawn about the musicians' abilities as well as conclusions and scoring suggestions for works that have only survived in score or later copies. (Translated with DeepL.com)
