Summary of This Score
This score gathers a set of pieces for keyboard/harpsichord arranged as a pedagogical and musical collection, mixing short forms, dances, and more developed movements. It first includes elements to aid reading with a Vorwort (preface), 4 facsimiles, the Claves signatae section, as well as an explanation of the various signs, to better understand notation and conventions.
The core of the volume offers a wide selection of pieces attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach, identified by their BWV numbers. Among them: Applicatio BWV 994, several praeludia/praeambulum (BWV 924, 926, 927, 928, 930, 931, 932), dances such as Allemande 1 & 2 (BWV 836, 837) and Minuet 1 to 3 (BWV 841-843), as well as chorale-like movements such as "Wer nur den lieben Gott läßt walten" BWV 691 and "Jesu, meine Freude" BWV 753.
The collection also includes the Preludes from the "Wohltemperierte Klavier I" presented in modified versions (BWV 846a-851, 853-857), allowing comparison of different states of the same musical material. Additional pieces by other composers are included, such as a Piece for harpsichord by J.C. Richter, as well as a Suite in A major by G.Ph. Telemann (BWV 824). The set concludes with an extensive contrapuntal and formative journey featuring Praeambulum 1-15 (Two-part Inventions) BWV 772-786 and Fantasia 1-15 (Three-part Sinfonias) BWV 787-801, essential for working on articulation, hand independence, and voice leading.
