J. S. Bach - Eight Little Preludes and Fugues Bärenreiter  

J. S. Bach - Eight Little Preludes and Fugues Bärenreiter 

For a long time, it was believed that the pieces were composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. The pieces even received a BWV number (BWV 553-560). Nowadays, it is assumed that the eight little preludes and fugues were written by a student of Bach.

The eight small preludes and fugues are often played in church services. This is partly due to their length (each about three minutes) and partly because they are relatively easy to play compared to other preludes and fugues by Bach.
