Fischer: Ariadne Musica - Praeludium et Fuga no.1 C major

Tibor Pinter plays on the Silbermann (1731, Reinhardtsgrimma) sample set.
Johann Caspar Ferdinand Fischer (1656-1746): Ariadne musica (1702). The original print of 1702 is lost, but a manuscript copy in the Minorite convent in Vienna and a mention in Walther's Lexicon provide evidence of its existence. This series of pieces begins in C major and ends, after 18 keys with accidentals, in C minor (closing in the major). The collection contributed to the question of the tempered tuning of keyboard instruments, described most clearly and thoroughly by Werckmeister in his Orgel-Probe (1681) and more particularly in its second edition (1698). J.S. Bach knew and valued the collection, and adopted some of the themes in Das wohltemperierte Clavier.
