Product Description

Programme Notes:
THE PRELUDE
The solemn and expressive character of the melody line is somewhat reminiscent of much of Bach's passion music, and weaves between the players with utmost ease. The Preludes most prominent melodic feature is the octave leap heard on all parts throughout the music, which leads to a satisfying conclusion.
THE FUGUE
Coming in at a whopping 115 bars, this is one of Bach's longest and most complex fugues. With three themes woven through together in five voices as only Bach can, this fugue offers a competent group of instrumentalists many technical and interpretive challenges!
Also available here in Clarinet Quintet & Wind Quintet Flavours!
