Bach Two Part Invention


Johann Sebastion Bach (1685-1750)

In this chapter, a carefully selected two-part invention by Bach (Number IV, D Minor, BWV 775), one of few that can be tuned without modification in this manner, is presented in ratios. Although only the first four measures are given in the traditionally notated version of this score, the entire score is given for the Csound version.
