This edition of Bach's Six Suites is appealing to both the scholar and the performer. The genesis of this edition was the alignment of the relevant manuscripts for easy comparison and study using a line by line layout. It has resulted in the ultimate scholarly approach to the study of these manuscripts and has led to many discoveries concerning notes, trills, dots, dynamics, and rhythm. In the scordatura version of Suite 5, pitch names are given above the notes for the retuned top string, clarifying confusing elements in the notation. Fingerings and bowings in this edition reflect those used on the DVD set of Starkweather's performance of the suites. Reference to the Manuscript Edition makes it possible to visually assess the ambiguity of many of the slurs and to reach one's own conclusions.
