I too have performed the prelude to the 5th (a lot). I do the chords as
multiphonics in the opening part. Lots of fun & a nice challenge.
The original key is debatable. The original key @ A=440 is what I do too.
The original key at A=415 would make me transpose up a tritone. I would have
to practice that!

"I performed the prelude to the 5th suite at a recital last year. It was
great fun and one of the most musically challenging things I've worked on in
years! I also did it in the original key though, not a P4 higher like some
arrangements. Steve"
