Johann Sebastian Bach : Prelude No. 2 from Book 1

Taken from the Well Tempered Clavier, also known as the 48 Preludes and Fugues, this piece is not unlike the first prelude in construction with arpeggiated chords coming to a free cadenza-like climax towards the end. However this busy little tune is darker in tone and not just because of its minor key. A must for any serious student of piano, Book 1 and Book 2 are available from Sheet Music Plus.
