| Added by magataganm, 07 Dec 2016 This is an exercise in contrary motion, one part picking its way up the scale while the other descends, off the beat. The theme then essentially repeats the same pattern, but now mostly in triplets, providing a bit of contrast. Bach recycles these two segments several times, always starting from a different point on the scale, perhaps pushing the piece -- at about three and a half minutes, the longest of the inventions -- beyond the capacity of its modest material. Although originally composed for Harpsichord, I created this arrangement for Viola Duet. Sheet central : | 15 Inventions à deux voix (249 sheet music) | | |||
