Preludes & Fugues

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich & Olli Mustonen

Preludes and Fugues (commonly known as The Well-Tempered Clavier) is a collection of keyboard compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach, with Book I completed in 1722 and Book II in 1742. The works present paired preludes and fugues in all major and minor keys to examine well-tempered tuning and contrapuntal technique, and they are central to Bach's output and the evolution of keyboard repertoire.
