Klavierbüchlein für Wilhelm Friedemann Bach

Klavierbüchlein for Wilhelm Friedemann Bach is a collection of smaller compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach. Bach presented to the hilt for his eldest son Wilhelm Friedemann Bach; the original title is Clavier Booklet before Wilhelm Friedemann Bach. Often today the shorter title Klavierbüchlein is used for Wilhelm Friedemann. The works are written for various keyboard instruments, mainly well for clavichord and harpsichord.

Formation

On the title page of Bach noted the January 22, 1720 as the beginning of the collection. Most of the pieces included are early versions of the later compiled collections and Well-Tempered Clavier Inventions and Sinfonias. There are also some suites of other composers, and many other individual records where in some cases the authorship is disputed; partly it is likely to involve attempts at composition Wilhelm Friedemann. The sentences that could bring the editors of the Bach Opus most closely with Johann Sebastian compound were combined there under the title Nine Little Preludes ( BWV 924-932 ); also they are attributed by some researchers Wilhelm Friedemann.

Two years later, put his wife Anna Magdalena Bach for a very similar issue to that Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach, a few years later, another should follow second. For his other children and his numerous students respective collections have not survived.

Content

The book begins with a preface, containing an explanation of the key and the dissolution of ornaments. The pieces are clearly arranged on the whole, in a didactically sensible order. At the beginning of fall on particularly the Applicatio in C major ( BWV 994 ) and the Prelude in G minor ( BWV 930), because they are the only surviving examples of autograph fingerings Bach. ( Bach's only other work with preserved finger sets the C major Prelude BWV 870a, but they are not there, written by himself, but possibly by Johann Caspar Vogler ( 1696-1765 ), Bach's pupil and successor in Weimar. )

There are some slight individual records - preludes, dances and choral arrangements - and then eleven preludes, in revised form part of the Well-Tempered Clavier should be later. After a few more single records and sketches the Two Part Inventions follow in early versions, then two suites of other composers, and finally the Three Part Inventions. Bach arranged the Inventions here in order of on - and descending scale, the preludes of the Well-Tempered Clavier later than twice rising to fourth conductor to.
