Description
The Applicatio in C major, BWV 994 – recorded here for All of Bach with young talent Fernando Lourens from the Netherlands as part of a talent development project by the Netherlands Bach Society – is a practice piece father Bach wrote for his young son Wilhelm Friedemann Bach. BWV 994 has only eight bars. But even on this miniature scale, the music is still Bach through and through. It gave Wilhelm Friedemann the chance to practice set musical patterns, in this case the paired finger technique.
