Chromatic Fantasia And Fugue
The ''Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue'' in D minor, , is a work for harpsichord by Johann Sebastian Bach. Bach probably composed it during his time in Köthen from 1717 to 1723. The piece was already regarded as a unique masterpiece during his lifetime. It is now often played on piano. Sources An autograph of this work is not known. The musicologist Walther Siegmund-Schultze pinpoints the work to the "fermenting Köthen works" because of its improvisatory and expressive nature, using all keys.Cristoph Rueger (ed.): "Johann Sebastian Bach" in ''Harenberg Klaviermusikführer''. Harenberg, Dortmund 1984, , pp. 85–86 At least 16 different handwritten copies of the score are extant, including five from Bach's lifetime.
