Program Notes on Marche in G Major, BWV Anhang 124 -- Urtext by Bach, C.P.E. :

Source : Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach [Notenbüchlein für Anna Magdalena Bach] (1725).

This Marche BWV Anhang 124 was probably composed ca 1733 and was entered by C.P.E. Bach himself in Anna Magdalena Bach's notebook.

It has a simple A-A-B-B musical form :

Measures 1-9 : Phrase A (played twice) in the main key of G Major, featuring many repeated notes in both hands
Measures 10-22 : Phrase B (played twice) beginning in the dominant key of D Major and modulating back to G Major in measure 12

Please note that some modern editions show a C natural in measure 6 (right hand, first and second beats). We feel that this is an omission and show a C#, as do many other modern editions.

In accordance with Baroque performance practice, remember that unslurred quarter notes should be played slightly detached, especially in the left hand.

Please note that for your convenience, the editor has included in this score suggestions for the realization of the ornaments :

Trills : (measures 7 and 20) begin ON the beat, on the upper auxiliary notes. More on less repercussions may be played depending on the player's ability. Also, the value of the dot may be exaggerated and the eighth note played as a sixteenth note, as was customarily done in the Baroque period
Appogiaturas : (measures 13 and 17) are played ON the beat and take up one half on the main note's value
