The circle of fifths sure gets around! I'm comparing sequences by Shostakovich and Bach. In 1951, Dmitri Shostakovich published his 24 Preludes and Fugues, Op. 87 for solo piano. These works demonstrate the influence of J.S. Bach's music, namely The Well-Tempered Clavier, a collection of 48 Preludes & Fugues, split into two books (1722 & 1744).

The first sequence is from Bach's Invention 7 in E-minor, BWV 778 (ca. 1720-23), specifically m. 13-14. The second sequence is from Shostakovich's Prelude & Fugue 1 in C-major, Op. 87 (1951), specifically the Prelude, m. 19-22. Both sequences involve a descending circle of fifths bass.

As Shostakovich's 24 Preludes & Fugues are not yet in the public domain, I cannot point you to a link for free sheet music. However, in case you'd like to buy a copy, here's a link for the same edition that I have (Hal Leonard, edited by Julien Musafia): https://www.amazon.ca/Dmitri-Shostako...
