Summary of This Score
This score brings together a major set of the keyboard repertoire: the 24 Preludes and Fugues ranging from BWV 846 to BWV 869 (Nos. 1 to 24). Designed for the piano, it constitutes a central resource for any musician wishing to consolidate technical foundations while delving into polyphonic writing. Each prelude offers a specific atmosphere, texture, and type of touch, while each fugue highlights a rigorous voice construction, ideal for working on rhythmic precision, sound balance, and clarity of layers.
Beyond study, this collection fits perfectly into a repertoire path: it allows for gradual approach of essential issues such as regularity of playing, management of legato and non legato, ornamentation, and phrase breathing. The pieces can be worked on individually according to the current objective (setup, articulation, fingerings, sound production) or approached as a cycle to develop an overall vision. The edition prepared by Kreutz supports the pianist in structured reading, useful both in lessons and autonomous practice, from advanced level to mastery.
