Prelude and Fugue in E minor, BWV 548
Prelude and Fugue in E minor, BWV 548 is a piece of organ music written by Johann Sebastian Bach sometime between 1727 and 1736,[1] during his time in Leipzig. The work is sometimes called "The Wedge" due to the tonal structure of the fugue theme.[1]
Franz Liszt arranged the work for piano (S. 462).[2]
