C# Major from Book 1 for me. It's definitely not the most complex, but if we're talking about favorite, I really like the pastoral pulse and such a catchy fugue subject.

Both of the C and C# P&Fs are great imo.

Hello

I've just worked through Book 1( sort of) and like lille, I have loads of favourites from Book 1:

C major
C# major
db minor/e#minor
D major
F minor
G major
g minor
g# minor
Ab major
a minor
Bb major
bb minor
b minor

I've briefly looked at the first four p&fs in Book 2 and it's so much fun to play them...I love them all.
When I first listened to Book 2 years ago, I particularly adored Ab major and fell in love with Bb major.
