This "urtext" or "scholarly" (scientific) edition was published at least 25 years ago in the EU (or 20 years ago in Italy, before 1992 in the former USSR). Hence, the edition is public domain in its country of origin or a government publication. Such editions are also public domain in Canada because they fail to meet the minimum 'threshold of originality' to qualify for copyright as an 'adaptation'. They may not be public domain elsewhere.

Misc. Comments

Earliest surviving source is a set of parts copied out ca.1730; believed to have been composed ca.1717–1723 in Cöthen but perhaps composed instead when Bach was in Leipzig.

In 1865 an arrangement by Friedrich Hermann "1ière Concerto (Am.) p. Violon av. Pfte arr. p. Fr. Hermann." was published by Peters (Edition Peters no.229, plate 4476, 19 pages score, 7 pages violin part, acc. to WorldCat.) - Schissel
