Duration: ca. 3:00.Bach's Prelude and Fugue in G Minor BWV 558 is a work for organ composed by Johann Sebastian Bach in the early 18th century. It is part of his collection of preludes and fugues for organ, the Great Eighteen Chorale Preludes, and is one of the most beloved and often performed of all his works. The prelude is marked by its dramatic and intense character, with an ascending and descending chromatic scale providing a powerful climax. The fugue is marked by its intricate contrapuntal writing and shifts in tonality, as Bach builds up a complex texture of musical lines. Together, the prelude and fugue form a powerful and emotionally charged work, with the prelude providing a stark contrast to the more complex fugue. This work is a testament to Bach's mastery of the organ and the contrapuntal techniques he employed. It is a beloved and timeless masterpiece of the Baroque era.
