About this Work

The Pedal-Exercitium, BWV 598, is a short, virtuosic organ work for pedalboard alone, attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach and preserved in the handwriting of his son Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. It consists of rapid broken-chord figurations and large leaps, serving as both a technical showpiece and a pedal exercise.[1]
