• Welcome to the Pipe Organ Forum! This is a part of the open community Magle International Music Forums focused on pipe organs (also known as "church organs"), organists, organ music and related topics.

    This forum is intended to be a friendly place where technically advanced organists and beginners (or even non-organists) can feel comfortable having discussions and asking questions. We learn by reading and asking questions, and it is hoped that the beginners (or non-organists) will feel free to ask even the simplest questions, and that the more advanced organists will patiently answer these questions. On the other hand, we encourage complex, technical discussions of technique, music, organ-building, etc. The opinions and observations of a diverse group of people from around the world should prove to be interesting and stimulating to all of us.

    As pipe organ discussions can sometimes become lively, it should be pointed out that this is an open forum. Statements made here are the opinion of the poster, and not necessarily that of the forum itself, its administrator, or its moderators.

Hi all and nice to be here again been quite busy lately.

My Question is. Does any one know where I can find the English or Dutch
titles for Bach's compositions either in the BWV numbering or German titles,
translated on the net. I have been searching a while now but seam to get none.

I find it so rewarding when I understand the name of the peace.
I must say the few I get like on youtube and so on makes such a difference
understanding the peace of music. Bach has got some wonderful deep
meaning titles for his work.

Kind Regards

Hi all

Thank you ever so much for your quick input and
reply. I have found this link that works for me
http://translation2.paralink.com/ I now cut and past
even from my PDF files and it translates to English.
Now Bach is becoming a even more rich and rewarding
experience in my life.

Kind regards
