Description:
Prelude in C Major for clarinet quartet, score 3 p. and parts. Listen to the audio sample for an immediate impression of how this arrangement sounds.
Johann Sebastian Bach's Prelude and Fugue in C Major, BWV 846 is the opening piece of The Well-Tempered Clavier. The flowing, murmuring movement of the continuous semiquavers, originally played between both hands on the piano, is now shared among the four clarinets. This arrangement provides an excellent opportunity to refine synchronisation and musical cohesion, requiring precision and unity from the ensemble.
In 2025, we commemorate the 275th anniversary of Johann Sebastian Bach's passing. This special jubilee year presents the perfect opportunity to honour his timeless music and bring his extraordinary legacy back into the spotlight.
