Organ compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach refers to the compositions in the seventh chapter of the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (BWV, catalogue of Bach's compositions),[1] or, in the New Bach Edition, the compositions in Series IV.[2]
Traditionally known as chorale preludes, the compositions in the BWV 599–771 range of the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis, and later additions BWV 1085, 1090–1120 (Neumeister Chorales) and 1128, are also indicated as chorale settings for organ,[15] and include multi-movement chorale partitas[16] and sets of variations.[17]
The Orgelbüchlein contains 46 chorale preludes, and a fragment (BWV Anh. 200).
Most of the Schübler Chorales, which were published around 1748 as Sechs Chorale von verschiedener Art (Six Chorales of Various Kinds), are transcriptions of extant cantata movements:
The 24 chorale preludes and five variants published as "from the Kirnberger Collection" ("in Kirnberger's Sammlung") in the 40th volume of the Bach-Gesellschaft Ausgabe (1893) were all retained in the 690–713a range of the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis. Johann Kirnberger's involvement with this collection of chorale preludes, some of which are spurious or doubtful, is however uncertain: modern scholarship no longer refers to this set as "Kirnberger Collection" (unless with qualifiers such as "so-called" or "formerly").[20]
31 chorale preludes for organ, discovered 1985 in the archives of the Yale University library.
Provenance of standard texts and tunes, such as Lutheran hymns and their chorale melodies, Latin liturgical texts (e.g. Magnificat) and common tunes (e.g. Folia), are not usually indicated in this column. For an overview of such resources used by Bach, see individual composition articles, and overviews in, e.g., Chorale cantata (Bach)#Bach's chorale cantatas, List of chorale harmonisations by Johann Sebastian Bach#Chorale harmonisations in various collections and List of organ compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach#Chorale Preludes.
Various lost, doubtful and spurious organ works are included in the BWV Anhang:
