Description
Johann Sebastian Bach - Prelude No. 1 BWV 846 in C Major
The opening C major chord unfolds one note at a time, setting a quiet pulse that carries the whole prelude. Each new chord changes the light a little, even when the fingers are following the same pattern.
It’s a piece you can return to at the beginning of a practice session and hear differently each time. Let the bass linger in your ear while the upper notes flow, and choose where a change of harmony asks for a little more time or weight.
Have a happy performance!
