This delightful collection of Preludes provides an excellent introduction to the music of the Baroque period. The album is grouped in three sets of six each: the first comes from the Wilhelm Friedemann Bach Notebook; the second, preserved in copies made by his pupils; and the third comes from the collection of Johann Peter Kellner.
