French Overture in B Minor BWV 831 - Edition with Fingering Piano

In 1735 Johann Sebastian Bach published his French Overture BMV 831 together with the famous Italian Concerto as the second part of his Clavier-Ubung. The designation Ouverture (Overture) can be somewhat misleading, since this work consists not just of an opening movement but also of a full-fledged partita with 11 movements: Ouverture, Courante, Gavotte I & II, Passepied I & 11, Sarabande, Bouree I & II, Gigue and Echo. In terms of melodic richness and rhythmic play it is on par with its sister-pieces from Part I of the Clavier Ubung, the 6 Partitas BMV 825-830.
