About this piece
One of the fifteen two-part Inventions, written to teach the hands to play independent lines; the two hands share the same musical material in imitation.
Why it is free to use
Johann Sebastian Bach died in 1750, more than 70 years ago. The notes come from the Mutopia Project's typesetting, taken from the source “Bach-Gesellschaft” (Mutopia piece 68, licence: Public Domain); we converted them to MusicXML and checked them against Mutopia's MIDI file, note for note.
