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 Ausgabe 1851-1899 Band 14 (1866)” (Mutopia piece 974, licence: Public Domain); we converted them to MusicXML and checked them against Mutopia's MIDI file, note for note.

About this score

This is the complete piece, not an excerpt. The notes were converted from the Mutopia Project's public-domain typesetting of Prelude in D minor, BWV 875 (piece 974, typeset from the source “Bach Gesellschaft Ausgabe 1851-1899 Band 14 (1866)”; licence: Public Domain) and checked against Mutopia's MIDI file, note for note (repeats included). The score is the same music in a different file format; we dedicate our conversion to the public domain (CC0 1.0). Mutopia Project page
