The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Friedrich Gulda

The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I is a collection of keyboard preludes and fugues by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed in 1722. Rooted in Baroque counterpoint and intended to demonstrate the possibilities of a well-tempered tuning system, it presents pairs of preludes and fugues across all major and minor keys and occupies a central place in Bach's keyboard output and in the development of keyboard technique and pedagogy.
