5.0 out of 5 stars
Finally, readable notation!
Many of the editions of the inventions that are out there are from very old, dated engravings. This edition has clear, nice-sized notation, good fingering suggestions, and excellent printing quality. I'd highly recommend this edition to any pianist, beginner or advanced!

3.0 out of 5 stars
For the beginner/intermediate only
The preface to this edition contains lots of specific information about ornamentation which is a great learning tool. However with regard to the actual music, I found the editor's suggested phrasing, dynamics, and fingering to be a large artistic imposition. Though they are in grey ink to distinguish them from Bach's markings, they still clutter up the page considerably...

The preface to this edition contains lots of specific information about ornamentation which is a great learning tool. However with regard to the actual music, I found the editor's suggested phrasing, dynamics, and fingering to be a large artistic imposition. Though they are in grey ink to distinguish them from Bach's markings, they still clutter up the page considerably and are hard to ignore. I would prefer to begin learning this music from Bach's notation and interpret from that. A beginning or intermediate student would very probably enjoy the guidance, as the suggestions are not terrible, just not authentic. Avoid this edition if you want a clear presentation of this music the way Bach prepared it.
