What its lesson teaches
Study Bach’s Little Prelude in F major, BWV 928, and keep its independent lines. Separately compare the keyboard model’s chord built in fourths with a cluster, then use their contrasting colours in a cadence and an answering phrase: an experiment in colour, not something Bach used. The tremolo-and-glissando card belongs to the same modern palette; the prelude has neither.
