Baching Mad

There are very few pieces of Bach I would dare to add to, but the C minor Prelude from book 1 of the Well-tempered clavier has always seemed just a little too technical exercise to me since learning it at school. This orchestral work adds various extra layers: chirping winds, enriching brass, a mellifluous flute solo, and – of course – lots of coloristic percussion. I do hope the great master would not mind too much.
