Added by magataganm, 05 Dec 2016 Despite its minor key, Bach's fourth invention has a pleasant, swaying feel thanks to the smoothly rolling, up-and-down contour of its top melody. The bottom picks up the theme, but supports it with independent though related material rather than mimicking it in strict canon. Long, imposing trills intrude upon each part. The "two-part" designation here applies not only to the voicing but to the structure; the piece falls into two halves, the second both a commentary on and prolongation of the first. Although originally composed for Harpsichord, I created this arrangement for Viola Duet. Sheet central : | Autres chorals et préludes (91 sheet music) | |
