It is clearly using the Bach-Niedt code too. Do great composers do that consciously or unconsciously?
The key is D minor ie Re minore. Ie all B are B flat ie all Si are Si flat.
Bass sequence is:
Re
Sol
La
Fa
(Mi passage note)
Re
Sol
... all bass notes repeated in a loop
Melody is:
Fa mi fa re fa do fa si...... (Si sustains for a long time until bass becomes La)
So a prepared ninth is created. The 3rd with respect to bass is then added since the chord is La Do Mi. So it's is really La bass and La Do Si.

If you follow the melody closely you will also see or rather hear a prepared 4rh and 7th created at other moments in time.
