Work introduction
No. 1 = The prelude and fugue each begin with the main theme stated in the beginning measures followed by motivic development. No. 2 = The prelude is A-B-A in form with the outer sections containing a nine note motive heard in the beginning with the right hand, and the middle section is a 6/8 canon. The fugue is busy with the motivic development of its theme. No. 3 = The prelude is five short variations with the theme heard in the beginning with the right hand. The fugue is actually a double fugue in the Dorian mode, with both themes playing with each other near the end.
