Topic: New video Bach Prelude n 18 in G sharp minor, BWV 863 WTC 1 PianoTeq
Dear Friends,
Today the discovery of Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier takes us into the key of G sharp minor. The Prelude in G sharp minor is structly connected with Prelude n 4 of WTC 1. Infact C#-min and G#-minor are keys in near relationship, the one to the other. Both metaphysically, transcendentally, have something in common, they are far removed from the sober views of every day life, and move in a sphere of supersensual presentations and ideal feelings.
Did Bach himself notice that the theme of the C#-minor Prelude has once again displayed its inexhaustible, impulsive power in the G#-minor prelude? The mood is quite the same, the expression somewhat softer here than there, the whole structure somewhat more delicate, more polyphonic, while the melodic element exercises stronger power over the chord-like basis. The
theme is also introduced in inversion. I hope you liked it !
