- Prelude and Fugue in B minor, BWV 544
[11:5] (a=420 Hz)
A grand prelude with wonderful rhythmic drive, with marvelous interludes on the Rugpositiv, ending with some fine chromatic writing at the end. The
fugue subject is a walking pattern which wends through many keys, with the aid of a counter subject, relieved by arpeggiated episodes. The walking
slows near the end: the destination has been reached.
