the prelude and fugue in f# minor.. back on the steinway D. i had this set prepared a few days ago but didnt have access, so i waited till it was avilable since i got some bad reviews on other pianos...

the f# is a two-part invention, which means he uses the same material thruout the whole piece, either in original form or developing it in some way.
the fugue is four part fugue, but only a few bars have all four voices playing at the same time. it is solemn and slow, and features a beautiful but somewhat hard to hear inversion of the fugue theme.

UPDATE: 2/1/13 surreptitously replaced this prelude and fugue, as i came to find my previous performance in a word boring!
