The Inventions, BWV 772–786, (two voices) are a collection of fifteen short keyboard compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750): They were originally written as musical exercises for his students.
Bach titled the collection:
Honest method, by which the amateurs of the keyboard – especially, however, those desirous of learning – are shown a clear way not only (1) to learn to play cleanly in two parts, but also, after further progress, (2) to handle three obligate parts correctly and well; and along with this not only to obtain good inventions (ideas) but to develop the same well; above all, however, to achieve a cantabile style in playing and at the same time acquire a strong foretaste of composition.
Here, for the first time in the history of history, snapchat has acted as Bach's vehicle, under the capable hands of Surrealist Tea Ceremony, who has since retired from this form of social media.
