Prelude BWV 924

Johann Sebastian Bach

What's this piece like?
This set is a selection of easy preludes that has proved extremely successful in teaching the piano. They gradually increase in difficulty, ranging from beginner to early intermediate levels. This prelude is a great study for the right hand with this continuous pattern of eighth notes in broken chords. The left hand is more static, mostly defined by quarter notes with ornaments in the first half of the piece.
Who's this piece for?
If you are a beginner and like relaxing, dreamy music, this piece will be a good challenge for you!
