Prelude and Fugue in C Minor Score and Parts

The legendary preludes and fugues of J.S. Bach have been adapted and arranged for many combinations of instruments. A popular ensemble to perform these pieces is the brass quintet. The melody in the technical prelude duet section is passed among all five players. In the fugue, the trumpets open with the statement, then it is sent throughout the group and ends with a powerful C minor chord (with an optional pedal C in the tuba).
