Bach yearbook
The Bach Yearbook is a periodical published since 1904 on behalf of the New Bach Society in Leipzig and the world's most respected public organ for international Bach research.
The Bach Yearbook reflects the current state of scientific research on the composer Johann Sebastian Bach and his family both through contributions by well-known scientists and through the Bach bibliography that has been published regularly . The Bach yearbook is also the oldest regularly published printed work that is dedicated to a single musician.
The publisher of the first editions (1904–1939) of the almanac was the musicologist Arnold Schering , the current editions of the musicologist and Bach researcher Peter Wollny . In 2018 the yearbook for 2017 was published in the 103rd year. Special editions have been published on specific key topics.
