Description

To analyze the second book of the Clavier bien tempéré is to enter the laboratory of the most subtle alchemies.


In the Préludes , we discover the many techniques for developing a motif in service of a realization without preconceived design, which, through its modulating journey, seeks a fully realized form; in the Fugues , Bach multiplies contrapuntal darings in search of the most meaningful combination, while the expression progresses in intensity. Through the audacious freedom of his harmony, through the vigor or fluidity of his writing, the composer constantly excites our curiosity. This analytical workbook is here to guide us toward him.
