42 or 44
editThis article states "collection of 42 keyboard pieces". It could use clarification for a music layman - what is a piece here? Song? Pl wiki article, which is much smaller, states that this was a collection of 44 multi-voice pieces for pipe organs. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:05, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
It's 42 pieces as in 'songs', four of which contain two named parts. If we enumerate the parts individually too (all "b" parts in the Title Listing), then end end up with 46 pieces. In that respect the 44 figure on the polish language version is inaccurate. You could get to 44 if you count the parts separately but exclude the two final pieces notated in New German Tablature (NGT). There sometimes is a figure of 45 pieces floated about, which is possibly due to some sources assuming the two pieces in NGT to be one. I do plan adding a paragraph on this soon. --Sk8london (talk) 19:27, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
