What is the tempo of Bach little fugue?

Johann Sebastian Bach wrote Organ Fugue in G minor (Little Fugue) in 1709


Was there anything particular that Johann Sebastian bach included in his music?

Bach tuned his own harpsichords and clavichords and found other people's tunings unsatisfactory; his own allowed him to play in all keys and to modulate into distant keys almost without the listeners noticing it. Also, Bach required all the major thirds to be sharper than pure which is in any case virtually a prerequisite for any temperament to be good in all keys. Bach used instruments in the motets only for doubling the voices. In many of Bach's cantatas, the opening chorus includes the chorale melody complete in one voice whioe the other voices and instruments pursue the main concerted idea of the movement.


What did Johann Sebastian Bach think his most famous work would be?

He had around 1130 compositions. His cantatas along with his works for voice, organ and harpsichord brings us peace of mind. His Motets were in good taste to all. I think Bach would probably think that his cantata named -Jesus nahm zu sich die Zwölfe- in English -Jesus took the twelve under Him- was his most famous work.


Why is Johann Sebastian Bach so unique?

Well... He was able to play the organ extremely well and has written some fugues that no one is able to play today. His "Little Fugue in G minor" was fairly easy to him; today, only one person in the world is able to play it. He also was a good composer; nothing compared to Beethoven or Mozart though.
