The Prelude and Fugue in G-sharp minor, BWV 887, is the eighteenth prelude and fugue in the second volume of The Well-Tempered Clavier by Johann Sebastian Bach. It was written in 1738. It was written in 1738.
The pieces proceed in relative major/minor pairs around the circle of fifths: first C major and A minor (prelude and fugue nos. 1 and 2), then to one sharp (G major, E minor), two sharps (D major, B minor), and so on, ending with D minor (1 flat).
Most are three- and four-voiced fugues, but two are five-voiced (the fugues in C ♯ minor and B ♭ minor from Book 1) and one is two-voiced (the fugue in E minor from Book 1). The fugues employ a full range of contrapuntal devices (fugal exposition, thematic inversion, stretto , etc.), but are generally more compact than Bach's fugues for organ .
