Theprelude is 75 measures long, and has two voices for the most part. Addition voices were added in the concluding measures for the sake of enriching the harmony.[1] This prelude has a punctuated rhythm, similar to the style of aFrench overture. Bach also wrote out the ornaments himself.[2]
This piece is the thirteenth piece inThe Well-Tempered Clavier, which divides the first and second half of the work. The prelude has a distinct Gallic flair; with its ornamentations and dotted rhythms, it reminisces of thesixteenth variation of the 30Goldberg Variations, which also divides the work in half, and is also in French style.[2]
