Product Details

Product Description

The Prelude in C of Bach's Well-tempered Clavier is the well-known first piece of the Well-tempered Clavier. There are no dynamic markings in this piece, so there is just a suggestion at the beginning, so you have a blank slate of interpretive gestures to enjoy exploring. The recording is an automated rendering of the string quartet version and included here just for reference and to spark your imagination about probable tempo and how to add phrasing and other expression to suit the moment.

A number of the preludes and fugues in Bach's Well-tempered Clavier are suitable for string trio with occasional adaptations. This arrangement 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 - they should be better known! These gems ranging in length from a 2 to 6 minutes 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.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
