You are purchasing high quality sheet music PDF files suitable for printing or viewing on digital devices.The Overture in the French Style is the colossal first movement of the Partita in B minor, BWV 831. Originally composed by Bach for a 2-manual harpsichord, I have arranged this French overture for Baroque orchestra – that is, for oboe, oboe d’amore, English horn, 2 bassons, strings and harpsichord continuo. For those interested in the background of this magnificent work and why I have orchestrated it in this manner, please read my essay on pages 2 & 3.
