Bach - Small preludes and fughettas for piano (Ed. Wiener)

Small preludes and fughettas by Jean-Sébastien Bach for piano

Edited from autographs and manuscript copies and with fingering added by Walther Dehnhard

The preludes and fugues in this edition were not grouped together by Bach himself. Some of them are to be found scattered among collective manuscripts of differing contents, while others have survived as individual manuscripts copies. Later copyists, including, most recently, the editors of the Bach Complete Edition, have been responsible for gathering them together and for arranging them in a more or less random order. The time has now come for a new edition of the pieces, based on a critical evaluation of all the sources available.
