Bach’s Prelude in D minor, BWV 999

Welcome to our very first Study Group — a collaborative, peer-led dive into a beautiful piece of music over the course of two weeks.

We’re kicking things off with Bach’s Prelude in D minor, BWV 999!

This is not a course or a class — it’s a space for mutual exploration, discussion, and shared progress. I’ll be learning the piece alongside you (again — it’s been a while!), and I’m excited to discover new things together.

What to expect:

Between June 9th-20th, we’ll focus on:

Fingerings and technique

Harmonic structure and phrasing

Interpretation and expressive choices

Your own questions and perspectives!

We’ll also meet for two live Zoom sessions to share progress, chat about challenges, and nerd out over all things Bach.
