Description:
Johann Sebastian Bach's Praeludium and Fuge in A-moll, BWV 551 was composed around 1707, probably after Bach's visit to Buxtehude in Lübeck. The influence of Buxtehude and other North German baroque composers is quite present in this piece. A true stylus phantasticus piece, played on the model of the Wender organ of Arnstadt, which Bach inaugurated. Who knows, maybe Bach played this piece (or an improvisation that sounded like this piece) on this organ...
