However, he decided to continue working on and greatly expanding the Art of Fugue, a process that he had nearly completed by his death eight years later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work was then engraved and published by C. P. E. Bach, with a slightly revised edition being printed in 1752. Although almost all of the work can be played on a single keyboard instrument, a pair of harpsichords, clavichords, organs or other keyboards provide an effective medium for the complete work, and this new arrangement is supplemented by the completion of the final fugue made by Donald Tovey (1931), and the quadruple invertible fugue he composed to fulfil the Obituary's description of the work's missing final fugue.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lyrebird Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41949043228751,"sku":"LBMP-028","price":218.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/68b39c1bcbbcd9d1da4d80c8146453c8.jpg?v=1749670957","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/products\/bach-the-art-of-fugue-bwv-1080-arr-for-2-keyboards-lyrebird","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
