The third string in F# is obviously a very well-known change, but the fourth string in C# was an experiment that created surprising results. By no means is it a miracle solution, but it provides more fluid and comfortable fingerings and enhances certain tonalities (D major, A major, B minor, F# minor), which enables multiple original harmonic solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Siloti Prelude\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"fontstyle0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"fontstyle2\"\u003eThe Bach\/Siloti Prelude in B minor BWV 855a is a very particular work. This apparently straightforward piece written for his son Wilhelm Friedrich became the sublime Prelude n°10 in the first book of WellTempered Clavier. The Russian pianist A. Siloti (pupil of Liszt and teacher of Rachmaninoff) also transformed the original exercise by transposing the bass line to the treble and changing the tonality from E to B minor.\u003cbr\u003eAccording to the tradition established by Siloti himself, during the repeat the hidden, majestic melody in the middle voice should come to life. It is this version that I finally transcribed for guitar in the present edition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.allclassicalguitar.co.uk\/post\/j-s-bach-a-siloti-prelude-in-bm-bwv-855a-bergmann\" title=\"Chris Dumigan's review\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"fontstyle0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"fontstyle2\"\u003eRead a review by Chris Dumigan here...\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct:\u003c\/strong\u003e Digital PDF or Print on Demand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLevel: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIntermediate\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"fontstyle0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eISMN 979-0-706824-48-2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrder number: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"fontstyle0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBE-220609\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"fontstyle0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eListen to Marek Wegrzyk playing Prelude in B minor:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"fontstyle0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1088\" height=\"611\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KE8hLRCoOfY\" title=\"Prelude in E Minor, BWV 855a (Arr.
