Product Description

This fugue is the 5th fugue in Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier Book 1, which was written for the piano, and consists of 2 sets of 24 Preludes and Fugues. I have played this many times on the piano, as it's probably one of the easiest fugues written in this collection.

The original piece was written in the key of D for 4 voices and translates nicely to a string quartet.  

This piece should be played marcato - quite pompous - throughout. It's quite a fanfare type of piece and would be great as either an opening or an encore for your recitals!
