Bach – Prelude and Fugue in F♯ Major, BWV 882 (WTC Book II No.13) | Dynamic Tuning

About This Piece ・Composed in 1742 as part of Das Wohltemperierte Klavier, Book II ・The prelude is brilliant and transparent, featuring lively rhythmic patterns and flowing textures ・The fugue is light and joyful, written in three voices with playful contrapuntal exchanges ・F♯ major was a rare and “remote” key in the Baroque era, giving this piece a luminous quality 🎓 Fun Fact Because F♯ major was challenging to tune on historical keyboards, it was seldom used in Baroque music. Dynamic tuning restores its bright, radiant sonority, revealing a rarely heard spectrum of colors. 🛠️ Performance Details 🎼 MIDI Source: HarfeSoft.de 🔧 Modifications: Dynamic tuning (responsive just intonation) 🎧 Format: Digitally shaped with phrasing and articulation 📄 License: Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 Germany (CC BY 2.0 DE) We reconstruct great works with attention to tuning, balance, and historical fidelity.
