Johann Sebastian Bach : Little Preludes and Fughettas

Piano solo / Harpsichord – Baroque Period

About Editor/Fingering:

This Urtext Edition is edited by Rudolf Steglich, with piano fingerings provided by Hans-Martin Theopold. This collection is a staple of piano pedagogy, designed to bridge the gap between early studies and Bach’s major cycles.

Description:

This volume contains over 50 pages of the most successful educational pieces in the piano repertoire. Originally used by Bach to teach his own sons, Wilhelm Friedemann and Carl Philipp Emanuel, these compositions remain as musically magical today as they were 300 years ago. The pieces are organized to provide a gradual technical progression, making them ideal for developing finger independence and contrapuntal thinking. Even for advanced players, these "gems" offer excellent material for sight-reading and stylistic refinement.

Features:

• Pedagogical Excellence: A universally recognized selection for teaching the fundamentals of Baroque keyboard style.
• Progressive Difficulty: Moves from very simple preludes to more complex fughettas, allowing for steady student growth.
• Authentic Urtext: Based on the "Pianobook for W. F. Bach" and other primary sources to ensure historical integrity.
• Fingering Included: Hans-Martin Theopold’s fingerings are tailored for modern piano performance while respecting Baroque voice-leading.

Performance Tips/Difficulty:

The collection ranges from Difficulty 2 (easy) to 5 (medium). Several pieces, such as BWV 926 and BWV 936, are recommended for ABRSM Harpsichord Grade 5. Students should focus on articulation clarity and the steady pulse required for dance-like rhythms. Advanced students should treat these works as miniature masterpieces, paying close attention to the subtle harmonic shifts and ornamentation.

About Composer/Editor:

J.S. Bach (1685–1750) was not only a master composer but a dedicated teacher. Editor Rudolf Steglich was instrumental in establishing the high standards of the G. Henle Verlag Bach catalogue, ensuring a text that is both scholarly and accessible.
