Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 the concerto, with a preface by Besseler, in 1964. In 1975 Dürr's edition of the early version was appended to the NBA Series VII Vol. 2 publication of the "Brandenburg Concertos". The violone part for the third movement of the NBA edition of BWV 1050a was based on a spurious cello part for the BWV 1050 version of the concerto: Dirksen deemed the result of that combination unconvincing. Recordings of the fifth "Brandenburg Concerto" were released on 78 rpm discs: In 1973 Wendy Carlos included a Moog synthesizer performance of the fifth "Brandenburg Concerto" in her second "Switched-On Bach" album.
