Johann Sebastian Bach : Two-Part Inventions

Piano Solo - Master Composer Library

Introduction :

(Piano Solo). The Two-Part Inventions by Johann Sebastian Bach were originally composed as essential teaching pieces for his students. This 36-page edition, part of the Master Composer Library and edited by Keith Snell, organizes the inventions in ascending order by pitch, starting with C Major and covering keys with up to four sharps or flats. Each invention is clearly engraved across two pages to eliminate awkward page turns during performance. This volume features expert editorial markings, suggested tempi, and a comprehensive table of ornaments to guide students toward an authentic Baroque performance.

Product Features :

• Complete collection of Bach's 15 Two-Part Inventions.
• No-turn engraving : Each piece is presented on a two-page spread for seamless play.
• Includes a detailed table of ornaments with visual examples and execution guides.
• Features suggested tempi and practical editorial markings by Keith Snell.
• Perfect for Intermediate level students developing polyphonic independence.

Performance Tips :

• Focus on independent melodic lines; ensure that both the right and left hands receive equal musical weight and clarity.
• Consult the ornament table carefully before practicing; Baroque trills and mordents often begin on the upper neighbor note.
• Tip : Practice each hand separately with a metronome to master the intricate rhythmic interplay before attempting to play hands together.

Composer and Editor Introduction :

• Composer - Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750) : The supreme master of Baroque counterpoint. Bach intended his Inventions to teach students not only how to play with "two independent voices" but also to provide "good inventions" (musical ideas) that inspire further composition and musical taste.
• Editor - Keith Snell : A prominent piano pedagogue and editor whose editions are pillars of piano education in North America. Snell is known for his clean, practical approach to editing standard repertoire, making complex Baroque works accessible and structured for the modern student.
