Product Description

Score: 5 pages. Duration: 2:38.

Johann Sebastian Bach's Prelude & Fugue in G Major BWV 557 is a piece of organ music composed in 1703 and first published in 1714. It is a two-part composition with a prelude followed by a fugue. The prelude is a stately and joyful piece in the Baroque style. It is built around a series of themes, each repeated with slight variations, before culminating in a grand climax. The fugue is similarly constructed and features a clear exposition, with a main theme followed by several episodes. The piece has become one of Bach's most beloved works, due to its simple structure and its remarkable balance between prelude and fugue. It has been used in films, television, and other media, and is a staple of the organ repertoire.
