2000 - "Bach Edition, Volume #"

Originally sold at Kruidvat stores in ~2000, it is possible that these volumes were reprinted in later years to be sold across Europe, but it's not very likely that these reprints would be physically different in any respect.

2006 - "Bach Edition: Complete Works"

These below are temporary pseudo-volumes to avoid problems with loading a 155-CD release.

• I: Orchestral Works/Chamber Music

• II: Keyboard Works

• III: Cantatas I

• IV: Cantatas II (incomplete)

• V: Vocal Works (incomplete)

• VI: Orgelwerke (Should be "Organ Works", I guess.)

Status: Volume III is done, Volume IV to be entered.

Update: I have a physical copy of this box and am working on completing this release in musicbrainz. I plan to add each volume as a seperate release (like the mozart box in mb: http://musicbrainz.org/release-group/3ea5428d-1d2b-35ee-bbb4-5fb7171a7269). --kuno (talk) 21:29, 25 December 2012 (UTC).

I did a tiny bit of clean-up this morning, merging dozens of stray discs and stuff, in the process removing "Volume" from those pseudo-volumes to keep my sanity. --HumHumXX (talk) 10:23, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
