Description:
The ANACROUSE collection offers novice and experienced pianists alike a wide choice of classical works, from the Renaissance to the modern era.
We have set ourselves the goal of offering both "must-haves" from the classical repertoire and pieces by sometimes forgotten composers, all of undeniable pedagogical value. Each piece, sold individually, has been the subject of careful editorial work, both in terms of the musical text and its engraving, in order to guarantee musicians the conditions indispensable to the pleasures derived from frequent trade in these works.
The scores are offered in the form of traditional works (paper sheets), and also available by download.
The original version of the 2nd Prelude from the first book of the Well-Tempered Clavier appears in the Klavierbüchlein composed for Wilhelm Friedemann.
In this didactic piece, a study in the style of the toccata, the two hands play sixteenth notes in perpetual motion in opposite directions. The rapid run becomes frantic (presto, bars 28-33), then comes to a screeching halt. Two arpeggiated tonic chords, on which the discourse unfolds, in the right hand, in recitative style (adagio, bar 34).
Finally, the initial tempo is resumed for the four concluding bars (allegro, bar 35), the Prelude ending on the picardic third (in C major).
