******Georg Boehm* <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georg_B%C3%B6hm>*
Praeludium und Fuge in d-moll [4:44] /(A=465)/
The Prelude opens with a Pedal solo, goes through a few chordal
progressions, playing with the dotted rhythm that eventually
permeates the Fugue, which starts in Common Time, is interrupted by
rapid scalar passages, and reappears in 3/4 time. Some more bravura
chords and then arpeggios proceed to a swift cadence. If you find
yourself singing Handel's "How Beautiful are the Feet" from
/Messiah/, perhaps it was suggested by the fugue subject.
