Johann Sebastian Bach ： Well-Tempered Clavier II no.15 G-Dur BWV 884

This bright and expansive Prelude and Fugue in G major combines a light sense of motion with intricate counterpoint. In the Prelude, flowing figures are passed between the voices, creating a graceful continuity. In the Fugue, the subject appears in different voices, while independent melodic lines overlap and develop the music. The contrast between the Prelude’s fluid character and the Fugue’s carefully woven structure is a central point of interest. In performance, keep the smaller notes even without rushing, and make each entrance of the subject clear. Careful balance between the voices and restrained use of the pedal will help preserve the transparency of the individual lines.
