Johann Sebastian Bach - Prelude and Fugue in G minor, BWV 535: 2 Editions
A keyboard work likely composed for organ, featuring Bach's characteristic contrapuntal mastery. The prelude demonstrates improvisatory flair while the fugue showcases rigorous development of its angular subject.
This prelude and fugue exemplifies Bach's mastery of counterpoint and harmonic complexity, characteristic of the Baroque era.
This Baroque organ work exists in two distinct versions: an incomplete early draft (BWV 535a) and the final revised version (BWV 535) from Bach's Weimar period. The later iteration features more complex figurations, extended structure, and modernized notation compared to the simpler early draft.
