Prelude and Fugue in d minor

Organ and Registration

Though nothing in the music or the score requires it, this is one of the few of the Eight Short preludes and fugues that has the possibility of a smooth manual change without interrupting the musical lines. You could try, for example, changing manuals at mm. 13-23. To move back to the original manual, leave out the quarter-note 'd' in the left hand of m. 23, return to the original manual, and start the sixteenth-note runs there.
