Prelude and Fugue in A minor, BWV 551 Click to Listen [4:48]
Another exuberant prelude and loosely constructed fugue from Bach's youthful period. Some of the terrace dynamics the Phantom Organist chose to implement add a slightly idiosyncratic effect to the rhythm, but that is a characteristic of this piece in general, where long chords are preceded by indeterminate periods of silence. WellTemperament-SeventhComma. Midi File available. Instrument: The van Peteghem-organ of Haringe, Flandres (1778) - Samples by Hauptwerk.nl
