Bach - WTC I Prelude and fugue in C major BWV 846 - Henstra | Netherlands Bach Society

The Prelude and fugue in C major, performed by Siebe Henstra for All of Bach. Composing 48 keyboard pieces in all 24 keys was the sort of challenge Bach enjoyed. In each of the two parts of the Wohltemperirte Clavier, he brought together the musical couple prelude and fugue 24 times; twelve in minor keys and twelve in major.

Recorded for the project All of Bach on September 13th 2013 in Bussum. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel http://bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating http://bit.ly/2uZuMj5.
