-A part with fingering and bowing choices for every note.
-A completely blank part for you to write down your own choices.
-An arrangement of the Prelude for two double basses, derived from Bach's own arrangement of the suite for lute. All parts are printed in A minor for standard orchestral tuning.
-Notes from studying this piece with Edgar Meyer, and how that influenced interpretation.
-A presentation of the differences between this edition and the Anna Magdalena part, specific techniques and their notation, as well as many alternative solutions.
