    The prelude contains one unifying theme, which is utilized in a long pedal cadenza, interrupted by a transition marked with the tempo indication "Grave" and followed by a Fugue "Alla breve è staccato" which is quite reminiscent of the "Gigue Fugue" in the same key.
    Credits: James Pressler for Pedal Harpsichord; Brett Milan for Martin samples; Martin Dyde for Hauptwerk Virtual Pipe Organ

    Story Behind the Song
    Another early piece of Bach that sounds quite idiomatic for pedal harpsichord.
