JS Bach 18 Short Preludes

on: April 26, 2006, 06:55:08 PM

I recently picked up this edition published by Alfred publishing. It contains 18 short preludes some taken from the book of Wilhem Friedmann Bach. My question is that since these are not listed ( that I can find) in the complete works of JS Bach, were they written by JS Bach or by someone else and incorporated in the book of Wilhem Friendmann Bach? I don't have the numberes for these pieces.

Thanks

The little preludes are J.S. Bach's. They are wonderful.

What do you mean they are not listed? Look around BWV 924 and up, particularly the 6 from 933-938.

Gould recorded them all; they accompany the Toccatas album (as well as the little fugues).
