Unfortunately she was not familiar of the inner logic of a string players' bow technique.Īs demonstrated by her copies of the violin Sonatas & Partitas - where we have Bach's original - she miscopied frequently whole passages of bowings. The oldest manuscript of the Suites by Kellner (Petrucci Library / Baerenreiter)Ĭ 1727 - 31 manuscript by Anna Magdalena BachĪnna Magdalena's manuscript is regarded as possibly the closest to the original, obviously because she must have copied it from the original.Ĭertainly regarding the notes her copy must be the closest to the original. I assume Kellner noticed, that the he had seen the Sarabande and Gigue before, which Bach also used for the flute suites. He started for a few bars the Sarabande, stopped and left out the Gigue altogether. Suite 5 is written in this manuscript for standard tuning, which hints to an existing edition in standard tuning, because we can't assume, that another person than a cellist would be able to understand the jump at the correct notes considering position play.Īlso, he did not finish Suite 5. Therefore his bowings give rather a sense of phrasing and are inconclusive when used as bowing instructions. Kellner was a friend of Bach, a flautist and organist.
