Bach - WTC II Prelude and fugue no. 9 in E major BWV 878 - Schornsheim | Netherlands Bach Society
This no. 9 from the second ’Wohltemperirte Clavier’ opens with a refreshingly light prelude, used by the Swingle Singers for their legendary album Jazz Sebastian Bach (1963). This is followed by an ingeniously constructed fugue, in which Bach systematically and very comprehensibly explores all sorts of contrapuntal possibilities.
Twenty years after his first collection of music in every key imaginable, Bach completed a second ’Wohltemperirte Clavier’. We recorded his first book of Preludes and Fugues at the homes of 24 different musicians. For this second part, performed in its entirety by Christine Schornsheim, we chose 12 very different locations in Utrecht, to celebrate the 900th anniversary of our home city.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on 23 September 2022 at Metaalkathedraal, Utrecht, the Netherlands. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel and consider donating
