About the work

Bach’s name in notes.

In the German note-name system, B means B-flat and H means B-natural. Knecht builds this fugue on the sequence B-A-C-H, a musical signature that has inspired composers for generations. Originally for organ, it is arranged here in two different recorder-quartet scorings.
