Magnificat in E-flat major (BWV 243a) (Full Score)

J S Bach Magnificat in E-flat major (BWV 243a) (Full Score)

Bach's original setting of the Magnificat in E-flat major written for Christmas vespers in 1723 includes four inserts, placed at the end of the score, to give a dramataic representation of the Nativity. 

Although the later D major version is most often performed today, this earlier E-flat major version stands on its own merits with many attractive features which disappeared with the downward transposition.
