The Well-Tempered Clavier Part I-The Well-Tempered Clavier was the title given to the book of twenty-four preludes and fugues in all the major and minor keys which was composed and compiled during Bachâ??s appointment in Kothen in 1722. Bach later wrote afurther twenty-four preludes and fugues and so the forty-eight preludes and fugues eventually became collectively known as the Well-Tempered Clavier Parts 1 And 2.Bach composed the Well-Tempered Clavier Part1 â??for the profit and use of musical youth desirous of learning and especially for the pastime of those already skilled in this study.â??
