- Praeludium in G minor, BuxWV 148
[6:12] (A=465)
Opens with a Hauptwerk flourishes over organ points in the Pedal. The next section labeled Allegro is a short transition of a chromatic bent which
leads to a fughetta on a repeated note theme, played on the Hinterwerk. Then follows a rolling 3/2 section for three voices on the Hauptwerk and
Pedal. Finally a 2-measure passacaglia theme enters in the Pedal, modulates a few times, and ends with a statement in Bb that shifts smoothly to a
Phrygian cadence in the original key.
