BWV 1121 - Organ Tablature

Here are two important examples of what organ tablature and its transcription look like.

This facsimile shows the first 38 measures/bars of J. S. Bach's autograph score in organ tablature of BWV 1121 (discovered in 1982) which is the only extant, complete composition by Bach to have been discovered thus far written entirely in this type of German organ tablature. The estimated date of composition varies and is placed by some experts to have been composed and written sometime between 1706 and 1713.
