Johann Sebastian Bach ： Well-Tempered Clavier I no.3 Cis-Dur BWV 848

The Prelude unfolds in a fluent, continuous motion centered on broken chords, with harmonic changes and the exchange between voices driving the music forward. In the following Fugue, the subject enters successively in the different voices, and their overlapping lines create both tension and cohesion. In the Prelude, it is important to maintain the flow while keeping the notes even and listening closely to the inner movement. In the Fugue, bring out each voice clearly, marking the entrances of the subject while listening to the overall sonority and adjusting the balance. Use the pedal sparingly to avoid blurring, and let a light articulation bring out the music’s transparency.
