Product Description

The Fugue in G minor from Book 2 of Bach's Well-tempered Clavier is an example of Bach transcending the technical requirements of this form to create a beautifully expressive piece. There are no dynamic markings in this piece, so you have a blank slate of interpretive gestures to enjoy exploring. Although it is in a minor key, you'll find that the mood is not particularly somber or sad.

A number of the preludes and fugues in Bach's Well-tempered Clavier are suitable for string quartet with occasional adaptations. The Fugue in G minor is one of several arrangements of these beautiful pieces that are relatively unknown to musicians who don't play the piano or harpsichord or otherwise study Bach's keyboard works. These pieces are useful for weddings, funerals, concerts, high school solo and ensemble performances, and other occasions. Look for other preludes and fugues on this same site.
