First published: unknown. Completeness: unknown.

Bach’s F-major Invention is a lively three-beat dialogue built from rising broken chords and quick descending lines. Its bright motion comes from the continual exchange of these two shapes. The upper voice begins alone, and the lower voice answers with the same rising idea. Running figures then pass between the parts, sometimes moving together in sequences and sometimes contrasting with widely spaced eighth notes. A brief pause separates the opening span from further exchanges, which eventually lead back to F major and a compact final chord. An interesting detail is how little material is needed: the opening upward leap pattern and its descending continuation supply much of the music that follows.
