Musicology:

Praeambulum in A-, BuxWV158
Key: A-
Genre: Other Keyboard
Pr. Instrument: Organ (Baroque)

The word "praeambulum" means the same thing as praeludium and this work is no different than his praeludia. It opens with a free toccata passage followed by two imitative fugal sections and concludes with a segment of free passage work. The two fugues are thematically related, the second fugue subject is a 6/4 version of the common time subject of the first fugue.
