Prelude 6 in D minor, BWV 851
from the Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I, by J.S. Bach
Tabbed by Nick Choly
choly@fas.harvard.edu
I had to fudge a few notes by an octave here and there, but for the
most part, it holds to the original.
With the vertical bars | delimiting beats, I recommend striving for
100 beats per minute.
