Great Fantasia and Fugue in G minor, BWV 542
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Great Fantasia and Fugue in G minor, BWV 542, is an organ prelude and fugue by Johann Sebastian Bach. It acquired that name to distinguish it from the earlier Little Fugue in G minor, which is shorter. This piece is not to be confused with the Prelude and Fugue in A minor, which is also for organ and also sometimes called "the Great".[1][2]
It was transcribed for piano by Franz Liszt as S.463.
