Hi Simon, You yourself mention Henle’s critical apparatus is poor. Henle is not well regarded in terms of scholarly excellence. And their editions are full of mistakes. Their so called ‘urtext’ editions are far from it, and as for providing piano fingering for Bach harpsichord works, it leaves me dumbfounded. [One of the nice things about their new app is that you can _remove_ the fingerings – something I suppose the publishers did not think was a benefit, but it is!] And furthermore, the engraving is nowhere near as good as Lilypond!
Re BWV 815, I am going with Bach’s own MS, not Henle. The several other copies by various copyists may have additional marks, but that’s not what Bach wrote in this case.
