Part of Bach's pedagogical works, these preludes develop technical skills while maintaining artistic depth. The D minor prelude (BWV 935) features intricate counterpoint typical of Bach's keyboard style.
This prelude is part of Bach's pedagogical collection "Six Little Preludes" (BWV 933-938), composed for keyboard students. Characterized by its expressive D minor tonality, contrapuntal texture, and concise form, it exemplifies Bach's ability to merge technical exercise with artistic depth. Typically performed on harpsichord or modern piano.
A pedagogical gem from the Baroque era, this prelude exemplifies Bach's mastery of counterpoint within compact form. Originally for keyboard, its clear voice-leading makes it ideal for transcriptions like the guitar duo version referenced here.
