Most are three- and four-voiced fugues, but two are five-voiced (the fugues in C ♯ minor and B ♭ minor from Book 1) and one is two-voiced (the fugue in E minor from Book 1). The fugues employ a full range of contrapuntal devices (fugal exposition, thematic inversion, stretto , etc.), but are generally more compact than Bach's fugues for organ .

Mid-eighteenth century manuscript copy of Prelude, BWV 555 in the durezza style of Girolamo Frescobaldi. While originally attributed to Bach, scientific examination of the extant manuscripts by Alfred Dürr in 1987 and subsequent stylistic analysis of the score by Peter Williams have suggested that the eight preludes and fugues might have been composed by one of his pupils, Johann Ludwig Krebs.
