BACH SHEET MUSIC FOR PIANO: Preludium and fuga D dur
The first book The Well-Tempered Clavier was compiled during Bach's appointment in Köthen;
the second book followed it 22 years later while he was in Leipzig. Both were widely circulated in manuscript, but printed copies were not made until 1801, by three publishers almost simultaneously in Bonn, Leipzig and Zurich.
Bach's style went out of favour in the time around his death, and most music in the early Classical period had neither contrapuntal complexity nor a great variety of keys. But with the maturing of the Classical style in the 1770s the Well-Tempered Clavier began to influence the course of musical history, with Haydn and Mozart studying the work closely.
