Cover Image

Prelude No. 1 in C major
from The Well-Tempered Clavier Book 1
JS Bach edited for lever harp by Anne-Marie O'Farrell

Although this prelude is normally played on a keyboard instrument, it transcribes particularly well to a plucked instrument such as the lever harp. Levering directions in the score are notated by diamond-shaped note heads preceded by the approptiate accidental. The last chord of the prelude may be rolled in keeping with performance practice of baroque music.
