Il Clavicembalo ben Temperato - Libro I

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Christiane Jaccottet

Il Clavicembalo ben Temperato - Libro I is the first book of keyboard pieces by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, composed in 1722. The collection presents pairs of preludes and fugues in every major and minor key that demonstrate Baroque contrapuntal technique and the practical implications of tempered tuning, and it occupies a pivotal place in the development of keyboard repertoire and compositional practice.
