Master the craft of tonal fugues with a clear, example-filled guide to counterpoint.
This volume presents the rules of tonal fugue through detailed analysis, practical guidance, and hands-on exercises. It emphasizes how subjects enter, how countersubjects interact, and how episodes shape the progression from tonic to dominant and back.
Readers explore how four-voice textures are built, how chromatic figures influence motion, and how to structure a complete fugue. The book provides step-by-step discussion of different fugue types, with illustrative examples that show voice leading, imitation, and development in context. It is a thorough resource for those studying classical counterpoint and fugue technique.
Ideal for students of composition and musicians seeking a solid foundation in counterpoint and fugue.
