Product Description

Bach's Duets BWV 802-805 are significant works written for two equal parts, similar to his earlier two-part inventions. These charming short pieces showcase Bach's mastery of counterpoint and are musically more complex than the Two-Part Inventions. They are also known for their clear imitation between the hands, and their purpose was most likely to take two-part counterpoint "to the max." Bach included these four pieces in Part III of the Clavierübung (1739), which chiefly contained works for the organ, highlighting their importance in his repertoire. The duets are revered for their musical complexity and precise imitation between the parts, making them significant contributions to the genre of two-part counterpoint.
