- Short Prelude and Fugue in E minor, BWV 555
[3:17] (a=466 Hz)
The prelude is in a different meter than the fugue, and one of the performance challenges is to make that change immediately apparent even though the
subject is slow-moving. Some important technical lessons are contained having to do with suspensions, chromaticism and parallel thirds played together
in each hand. WellTemperament-VallottiYoung.
