Bach is presented as a study of movement, look, rhythm, breathing and presence in relation to musicality.

It is a selection of preludes and leaks contained in the two books that make up the well-tempered harpsichord composed by Johann Sebastian Bach in the 18th century, in which María Muñoz combines the dance of some preludes that sound live with the memory of some balladed fugues in silence. The presence of the interpreter evolves within a pure movement work. Bach is a rigorous work of movement language for which María Muñoz needed to travel alone to places that were probably inseparable from her deep understanding of music.
