Bach BWV 999 confusion

Post by Bachvein »

I would like to learn to play Bach's BWV 999 Prelude in C minor.
But I am confused.

The music on this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcFHuUJE0mU&feature=fvst and many other recordings

does not correspond to this music sheet

http://erato.uvt.nl/files/imglnks/usimg ... BWV999.pdf

Is it a different arrangement by some other composer (in which case, where can I find the music?) ?

Thanks

The YouTube video you linked is the c minor prelude of the Well Tempered Klavier Book I, BWV 847

Which piece do you want to play: the one on youtube, or the one on the sheet music link?

the prelude and fugue on the youtube link is entirely different from the pdf link.
this is the music for the youtube link : http://petrucci.mus.auth.gr/imglnks/usi ... e_fug2.pdf
this is the correct BWV 999 prelude and fugue:http://javanese.imslp.info/files/imglnk ... BWV999.pdf
