A Performance of Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1 at Webster University

What/Who:

The entire 24 preludes and fugues of Bach's magnificent Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1 will be performed by both students and faculty at this festive concert in the intimate Thompson House recital hall.

While most of the preludes and fugues will be performed on piano, there will be several instrumental and even electronic renderings at the concert. Come and go as you wish. Refreshments are provided.
