- If I had to pick one, it would be the Bach Prelude and Fugue in E-flat.
- This is one of the prelude/fugue, toccata/fugue combinations in which
- *both* the prelude and fugue are of the highest quality. There are many
- in which one or the other is noticably weaker.
-
- For example, in the aforementioned F-major Toccata and Fugue, the Toccata
- seems to me to be much the better, whereas in the 'Dorian' Toccata and
- Fugue, the fugue is superior.
