ANALYTICAL AND INTERPRETATIVE ASPECTS OF THE PRELUDE AND FUGUE IN C – SHARP MAJOR, FROM BOOK I OF THE WELL – TEMPERED CLAVIER

Summary/Abstract: This article aims to highlight the main analytical and interpretative aspects of the Prelude and Fugue in C-sharp Major from Book I of The Well-Tempered Clavier by Johann Sebastian Bach. The analysis focuses on both the structural features of the two works and the harmonic and thematic elements that contribute to a stylistically informed interpretation. The Prelude is examined from the perspective of its tripartite structure, thematic organization, and tonal plan, emphasizing the continuous dialogue between the two hands as well as the expressive role of the concluding section. The discussion of the Fugue focuses on its thematic entries, episodes, tonal relationships, and contrapuntal techniques that shape the musical discourse. Particular attention is also given to the main interpretative challenges, including the projection of latent polyphony, articulation, phrasing, balance between the voices, and the coherent presentation of the musical discourse.
